Our club leases its grounds from the council. Can we still apply?

Possibly, though you’ll need to establish site authority first.

The grant guidelines require applicants to demonstrate they have the right to carry out the proposed works on the site. For clubs on leased council land, that typically means written permission from the council as the landowner.

This is worth sorting out before the portal opens on 11 June, because getting the right sign-off from a local government can take time.
