Welcome to the SGA press office

As the governance support hub for the sports and physical activity sector, we can provide you with articles, spokespeople, speakers, commentary and analysis on all matters related to sports governance. 

Released: 27 February 2020 

Released: 1 December 2022

We want the SGA to be audience-led and powered by the sector. The feedback and contributions of those engaged in sport and physical activity organisations is crucial to helping us ensure that we are meeting the needs of those with governance responsibilities at all levels. 

The SGA community starts with your engagement.

The SGA is a unique partnership between The Chartered Governance Institute UK & Ireland and the Sports Councils from across the UK.

We are delighted that, after supporting organisations invested in by Sport England and UK Sport since we launched in February 2020, we are now extending the SGA audience and are excited to welcome to the Academy organisations from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. 

This new geographical range will not only help us to support and promote improved governance across the UK, but will also widen the SGA community and provide increased sharing and peer-learning opportunities.
