Since 2008, Flutter UKI has donated almost £7million to grassroots community sports clubs.
Cash4Clubs, funded by Flutter UKI, has boosted their 2026 funding to £/€500,000 to help 250 grassroots sports and community clubs across Ireland and the UK. In partnership with leading UK charity Sported, these small grants of £/€2,000 to clubs and organisations that help keep adults engaged with sport, particularly in areas that need it most.
What is Cash4Clubs?
Cash4Clubs is a small grants scheme for community sports clubs and organisations to use as they see fit, whether that's to purchase new equipment, gain coaching qualifications or invest in the sustainability of their club.
In 2025, almost 32,000 adults benefited from the Cash4Clubs scheme and according to leading UK charity Sported, who help administer the fund, 86% of clubs who responded to a questionnaire confirmed they had grown their membership as a direct result of this scheme.
How is Cash4Clubs funded?
Cash4Clubs is funded by Flutter UKI, part of Flutter Entertainment, the global sports betting, gaming and entertainment provider for over 18 million customers worldwide.
Flutter understands the power of sport in promoting health and wellbeing, bringing people together and building thriving communities which is why Cash4Clubs is one of their biggest community initiatives and a central part of their commitment to Do More for the community.
Over £7million has been donated since then via Cash4Clubs in different guises, including the ClubsInCrisis, a campaign that was run during the pandemic.
