CASC

The CASC scheme was designed to support grassroots sports clubs, and by gaining Community Amateur Sports Clubs status your club could be taking advantage of a number of benefits to save money.

The key benefits of CASC are:

  • 80% mandatory business rate relief
  • The ability to raise funds from donations under Gift Aid
  • Tax-free income from interest and capital gains (used for qualifying purposes)
  • Exemption from corporation tax on trading income (up to £30k) and income from property (up to £20k)

    To be eligible, your club must:
  • Be community-focused and open to all without discrimination
  • Have a core purpose in the promotion of amateur sports recognised by the Sports Councils
  • Reinvest any income back into the club
  • Your club’s constitution (or other governing documents; memorandum & articles, club rules) must show that you have met the eligibility criteria including those stated above.
