Club Champions 2025 – Magazine Out Now
Club Champions 2025 issue now published by Club Insure
Club Champions 2025 is the new magazine from Club Insure, recognising the key people behind the success of British sports and social clubs. The magazine features volunteers, general managers, coaches and community welfare officers – people who have given a large part of their lives to the benefit of local clubs.
The Club Champions 2025 Magazine draws from Club Insure’s Club Champions 2024/25 campaign, which saw a team conducting interviews across the country. Many clubs featured in the campaign had experienced major business interruption as the result of an insurance claim.
Sports and social clubs exist to serve local communities; just as Club Insure exists to service these clubs in return. We wish this Club Champions 2025 magazine to stand as a testament and celebration of the hard work of our members.
Find included below histories, success stories, claims stories, fundraisers, outreach programmes, risk advice, management guidance, and some stunning photography.
“It should not be underestimated, the effect sports clubs and social clubs have on strengthening a community.”
