Sport England - What we do. Sport England is working to increase the number of people who play sport regularly and we aim to make lives better through sport.
Currently over 15.3 million people play sport once a week, every week. That is over 1.4 million more than when London won the bid to host the 2012 Games but we want this number to increase. We are particularly focused on getting more 14-25-year-olds and disabled people playing sport once a week. In January 2012 we launched our current strategy and outlined the work that we will do over this five-year period to increase the number of people playing sport. Sport England - Funding Guidelines.
