Clubhouses

Our design principles can help you make sure your facility looks great and functions well to help attract new members and retain existing ones. They also ensure your facility benefits all users regardless of gender, age or other characteristics. The best examples of a thriving club are those that make a continuous, conscious effort to design, manage, operate and maintain their facilities.

Our Clubhouse Design Guidance Notes cover project management, design, refurbishment and sustainability, and supplement the wide range of existing design guidance you can find here. If you have any questions about specific sports, we recommend contacting the appropriate national governing body of the sport.

Facility plans and elevations

Facility plans and elevations have also been developed for a variety of layouts to help inform your decision making during the design stages. The layouts are examples of how our guidance may be applied and includes space planning and configuration at the starting point for a project/site-specific design. All figures, timescales, legislation and regulations are based on data and information available at the time of writing.
