Is your coach an employee of your club?
There is no dispensations, special rules or other exclusions for sports clubs when it comes to the employment status of coaches or other workers.
Whether your club uses volunteers, or if you pay people for the work they do at your club, it is important that club committee members understand key employment tax issues involved. Failure to do so risks significant additional costs for the club or individuals and there could be legal consequences.
You can check and confirm the employment status of a club worker anonymously using the Employment Status Indicator (ESI) tool on the HMRC’s website.
To aid your clubs understanding of the subject LIVING SPORT, in association with PwC and Club Leaders are delivering a PAYE and Employment Status seminar on Wednesday 19th June in Cambridge (PwC, Abacus House Castle Park, Gloucester Street, Cambridge CB3 0AN) from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.

- When is a volunteer not a volunteer?
