County Sports Partnerships are an integral part of the Government's drive to develop a 'single sports delivery system' across England, and we are the key bridge between local and regional networks.

Current Projects
We are often asked to manage national projects on a county level on behalf of nationwide organisations, or receive specific funding to focus on how sport can help in certain ways. It's all about making sport work for as many partners as possible. Details of the Projects we are working on can be found in the 'What we do' section of our website.
