Continued success for Clubmark
Welcome to the latest edition of the Clubmark newsletter!
With summer now supposedly upon us, we hope that wherever your club is at in terms of the sporting season the weather isn't affecting you too much!
The Clubmark club-o-meter has reached a very healthy figure of 10,900 and in this issue we take a look at the ways some of the National Governing Bodies have contributed to this number.
The Spotlight On section takes a look at the work put in by Colin Nixon, coach at Carlisle Villa Boxing Club, who has coached in the sport for over 40 years. If there is anyone at your club who you think deserves the spotlight shining on them, please get in touch via features@clubmark.org.uk
The latest CSP benchmarking reports are now available to download via the website and the first NGB reports will also be available online later this month.
Finally, don't forget to read about the importance of your club completing an 'Annual Health Check' as featured in the FAQs section.
