Скачать или смотреть Cash Poor, Time Poor, People Poor: How are sports clubs meant to survive in 2026?

Community sports clubs are doing vital work, but many of them are quietly struggling.

In this conversation, Scott sits down with Prantik Mazumdar to unpack a hard truth most clubs avoid: sport may be community-driven, but it is still a business. And when clubs don’t treat it like one, they burn out volunteers, leak money, and slowly disappear.

Drawing from decades of experience across sport, entrepreneurship, and technology, Prantik and Scott break down:
• Why “not-for-profit” thinking is hurting community clubs
• How clubs unknowingly lose up to 14% of revenue every year
• The real reasons volunteers burn out, and how technology can give them time back
• Why knowing your numbers matters as much in sport as it does in startups
• How clubs can build sustainable revenue through memberships, merchandise, digital tools, and micro-sponsorship
• Why emotion, access, and community are a club’s biggest untapped assets

This is not a theoretical discussion. It’s a practical, honest look at how community sports clubs can survive, modernise and grow, without losing their soul.

Whether you’re a club committee member, coach, volunteer, parent, or someone building in sport or community spaces, this conversation will challenge how you think about sustainability, money, and leadership.

A special thank you to Singapore Cricket Club for generously hosting this conversation and providing the space to bring these important discussions to life.
