SE1113 - Research into Alternative/Parallel Sporting Structures

Description

Sport England as the contracting authority is tendering for the delivery of a piece of research into the role alternative sporting structures and networks play in tackling inequalities in sport and physical activity. Sport England is seeking through this tendering process to award a contract with a suitably capable Contractor to provide these Services for an initial term of 4 months and a unilateral option of Sport England to extend for further periods up to a maximum of 3 months in total. The anticipated contract value is up to a maximum of £75,000 over the initial and potential extension contract period. Sport England is seeking to procure a supplier to deliver research to understand the role alternative sporting structures and networks play in tackling inequalities in sport and physical activity. It will help us identify examples of what is working well (i.e. 'bright spots') across alternative or parallel structures in supporting under-represented or marginalised groups to be physically active and understand how and why they are successful in reaching and engaging those communities with sport and physical activity. It will also help us explore the nature of any relationship(s) they have with hierarchies of mainstream sporting provision and understand the key implications of this insight and knowledge on our work to tackle inequalities. The research should provide actionable insight into what is working well parallel to, or on the margins of, mainstream provision, so that we are able to make more informed and effective decisions on how best to prevent and address inequalities in sport and physical activity.
