The Mayor’s Sports Legacy Fund subsidises the cost of training to increase the number of Londoners working and volunteering in sports and physical activity, and up-skill those already involved, leading up to the 2012 Games.
The programme is part of the London Mayor’s multi-million pound investment into the city’s sporting infrastructure and is managed by the National Skills Academy for Sport and Active Leisure.
Be a part of London's sporting future. Apply for training to support your local community through sport and physical activity and get up to 75% off courses in coaching and officiating, community sport, volunteering, leisure, health and disability sport.
Important note: The Mayor's Legacy Sports Fund is not a reimbursement fund. You need to apply for funding a minimum of 4 weeks before your desired course starts and receive your congratulations email from us before paying. This allows us time to process your application and ensure a place is available on the course. You can not apply for a subsidy from the Mayor's Legacy Sports Fund after paying for your course.
