Boccia England is committed to raising the standards of boccia across the country and recognizes that clubs, schools, charities and organizations that provide boccia play a key part in this development and growth of the sport. By working towards a minimum operating standard, Boccia England nationally recognizes good practice in boccia clubs through three levels of the Boccia Boost Accreditation Scheme. These levels are:

Bronze - Details the minimum operating standards that Boccia England expects a club to meet when delivering Boccia. For member and non-member clubs.

Silver - Designed to recognize clubs who can demonstrate they are working to develop and provide high levels of coaching, officiating and governance within their setting. Your club will need to be a registered Boccia England member.

Gold - This level is to showcase those clubs who are providing an exceptional level of Boccia coaching, officiating and governance, not only for their own players but also for the growth of boccia across England. Your club will need to be a registered Boccia England member.

Clubs do not need to complete these levels in order – you can apply for silver or gold rather than bronze if it suits your club best.

Each level of accreditation has associated criteria in areas including delivery, development, training, duty of care, safeguarding, sports equity and administration. Clubs achieving accreditation are rewarded with a selection of benefits.
