Sports Clubs

We appreciate how difficult it is to run a sports club; in many ways it is like running 8 businesses in 1 and often without the support that you would find within an ordinary business. Many clubs will have:

  • A retail outlet
  • A café/ bar/ restaurant
  • A membership scheme
  • Sponsorships
  • Conference & Banqueting/ Sporting facilities for hire
  • Matchday events
  • Lottery/ Affinity schemes

Sedulo have expertise in all these areas as stand alone entities, more importantly the Sedulo Sport division have team members which have experience of reporting and advising on these within the same enterprise. Particular attention is paid to cashflows models within these businesses.

Sports Men & Women

Whether it is tax advice, testimonial advice, or assistance with retirement strategy; Sedulo Sport delivers this in a refreshing approach that is both informal and understandable. Our Financial Services product, in particular, works closely with the individual in order to ensure that Pensions, Investments, Savings and Tax Planning issues are all taken care of by a qualified IFA.

A sporting individual’s career is usually less than half of their lifetime. We appreciate that upon sporting retirement an individual is faced with new challenges and goals to succeed.  Sedulo Sport work tirelessly in helping achieve these goals in the world of business. We have provided business mentoring services to a number of ex-professional athletes who wish to take an active role within their investments.
