IB.SH Funding Advisory for Sports Clubs

The Investment Bank Schleswig-Holstein (IB.SH) offers nonprofit sports clubs in Schleswig-Holstein free, tailored funding advice for the renovation, modernization, and energy optimization of club-owned sports facilities and clubhouses. Members of the Schleswig-Holstein State Sports Association or a district sports association in Schleswig-Holstein receive comprehensive information on funding and financing opportunities from the state, federal government, and EU. The goal is to reduce renovation backlogs and sustainably expand infrastructure. Construction measures such as insulation work, roof and facade renovations, building technology upgrades, lighting concepts, indoor air and climate technology, as well as barrier-free adaptations are taken into account. The advisory service also supports new construction projects (excluding new installations for grass or tennis courts) and prepares individual energy consultancy reports to ensure the optimal use of all available resources.

Inquiries can be submitted informally at any time. The basis for funding assessment includes information about the project sponsor, a concise project description, as well as details on the current project stage, estimated costs, and already applied-for funding. The consultation is continuous and accompanied by experts from IB.SH. Nonprofit clubs benefit from an objective evaluation of their projects and receive concrete recommendations for action when applying to public funding bodies. In this way, sustainable investments in sports facilities are promoted, achieving long-term positive effects on climate and resource conservation.
