The government will concentrate on major sports events and grassroots sports across the UK for the next few years, the government said.
The Euro 2028, the European Athletics Championships next year, and the 2027 men’s and women’s tours France’s departure are one of the main events that can receive more than £ 5 billion.
Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) said that at least £ 400 million will be invested in new and upgraded grass -rooted sports facilities nationwide after the funds are summarized last week.
The UK, Scotland, Wales and Ireland will co -host the Euro in 2028, and the showpiece men’s soccer tournament is expected to create up to 2.4 billion pounds with socioeconomic value alone.
Other major events to be held in the UK include the UK Women’s Rugby World Cup this summer, the 2026 Commonwells Game of Glasgow in 2026, and the Invictus Games founded by West Sex in Birmingham in 2027.
Earlier this month, more than 100 players urged the prime minister to support the London bid for the 2029 World Athletics Championships.
But the government has not yet dedicated to bidding, but the spokesman said it is working with British sports to secure a series of major sports events by 2035.
However, DCMS confirmed that in 2035, the UK continued to develop bidding to host the Women’s FIFA World Cup.
Sports institutions and local leaders for grassroots initiatives set up what each community is needed before we can work closely with the department to make additional plans.
The investment not only helps to create jobs and raise local prosperity, but also reduce barriers to opportunities and “gathers the community through a shared national moment.”
Lisa Nandy Cultural Minister said: “Sports talk about our country in several other ways, integrating the community, inspiring millions of people, and showing our country on the world stage.
“This major support for global -level events will lead to economic growth and provide change plans.
“With a strong investment in grassroots sports, we are creating a perfect passage for the next generation sports heroes to participate and participate in sports in the community across the UK.”
The announcement came after NANDY vowed £ 100 million to upgrade sports facilities across the UK, including new and improved pitches, dressing rooms, goal and floodlights in March.
Nick Webborn, the British sports chairman, said, “We praised new funds that could have great potential to lead economic growth, gather people and inspire the next generation.
“We think that live sports are the basic part of the social structure of this country.
“We are working with the government and supports their dedication to secure a pipeline for large events since 2028, and we are trying to continue to reach, inspire, and unite to people in all corners of the country.”
Stuart Andrew, a conservative shadow cultural minister, said: “Welcome to major sports events and grassroots sports, but spending review was not a benefit to UK sports.
“Rachel Reeves’ tax hikes are forced to sell the stadium and increase the business rate of the stadium.
“At the same time, the Labor Party dismissed the opening school facility fund and national citizenship, depriving young people a sports opportunity.
“Labor should be aware that their economic misconceptions have been hit by a fatal blow to the sports sector.”
