Corona crisis consequences for Dutch sport clubs

factsheet 2020/16

The Mulier Institute researched the consequences of the corona crisis for sport clubs and their need for support measures, commissioned by NOC*NSF and in coordination with VSG (the Association of Sport and Municipalities), the ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, and various sport federations.

3,256 (12% of all) Dutch sport clubs filled out the questionnaire. Data collection took place from April 1st, 2020 to April 13th, 2020.

The main findings are summarized in this factsheet:

• Four out of ten sport clubs’ board members (40%) show (grave) anxiety about the impact of the corona crisis on their club. These sport clubs are mainly clubs with a large budget (50,000 euro or more). 
• Sport clubs are particularly (gravely) concerned about the loss of members/volunteers (33%) and the loss of income. 
• Seven out of ten sport clubs (70%) expect to be able to meet their financial obligations without using support measures. One in ten sport clubs indicates being unable to meet financial obligations now. 
• One out of four sport clubs (26%) indicates that emergency measures, support or help are essential for them to survive the corona crisis.
• Two out of ten sport clubs (21%) are in consultation with their municipality about possible support measures or help.
