Wirral Badminton
"Representing the Wirral Gymnastics Club, I joined the forum to make contact with Wirral's wider sporting community. The forum provides opportunities to learn from the experiences of other sports clubs and to address problems common to various sporting disciplines. Some of our members have benefitted from awards or bursaries and it is great for their achievements to be recognised outside the club. "
Wirral Gymnastics Club
"We have been running a club on the Wirral for many years and are always looking for new ways to engage students. The Sports Forum offers support and ideas as well as contacts in various lines of business which are always good to know. The awards and bursaries are a fantastic way to acknowledge the amazing achievements of Wirral athletes no matter what sport they participate in."

The Wirral Sports Forum provides an ideal platform for us to share our achievements and also to learn how we can do things better in terms of promotion and financial awards we may be entitled to."
