Whether you’re a grassroots football team or a local cycling group, we help you unlock tax reliefs and funding opportunities by guiding you through the CASC registration process.
Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) status is a government-recognised designation that allows eligible sports clubs to benefit from a range of tax reliefs and financial advantages. If your club promotes participation in amateur sport and meets certain criteria, CASC registration could be a game-changer.
We specialise in helping clubs across the UK navigate the CASC application process with confidence and clarity.
Why Register as a CASC?
- Tax reliefs: CASCs enjoy exemption from Corporation Tax on trading income up to £50,000 and property income up to £30,000.
- Gift Aid eligibility: Donations from individuals can qualify for Gift Aid, increasing the value of contributions by 25%.
- Business rates relief: Clubs can receive up to 80% mandatory relief on business rates.
- Funding access: CASC status can improve eligibility for grants and community funding schemes.
CASC Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for CASC status, your club must:
- Be open to all and actively promote participation in amateur sport.
- Be organised on a non-profit basis.
- Have facilities and activities focused on community benefit.
- Charge fees that are affordable and inclusive (with specific thresholds set by HMRC).
- Ensure that at least 50% of members participate in the sport.
We’ll help you assess your club’s eligibility and make any necessary adjustments to meet HMRC’s requirements.
