The Borough is the home to approximately 400 sporting organisations that are mainly voluntary sector clubs providing sport and leisure opportunities for their local community.

The SDU also produces a Sports Clubs Directory that lists the clubs within the Borough.

Sports Clubs can also become members of the Scarborough and District Sports Council that provides member clubs with newsletters, reduced rates at coach education workshops, access to a grants scheme and an annual Sports Awards Ceremony, follow the link: Sports Clubs
