How it works

Sports4Causes is an industry initiative which provides racing enthusiasts across Britain the opportunity to attend the races as an owner for the day. The offering gives customers an authentic experience replicating all the perks a sole owner would receive on a race day.

S4C is currently offering race day ownership experience days across 36 racecourses across the UK.

So, what exactly will I get when I purchase a Sports4Causes experience package?

As soon as you purchase badges for your chosen meeting, you will receive a confirmation email with further information on what to expect ahead of the race day.

Each race day you will receive access into areas which are normally inaccessible to the general public.

This will include:

  • Owners Car Park
  • Owners Club access
  • Racecard
  • Owners lunch
  • Access into the paddock ahead of ‘your runner’s’ race
  • Meet and Greet with jockey/trainer in the paddock

One of the best things about our ownership experience days is that you are guaranteed an authentic experience as we limit the number of badges available at each race day.

Why has Sports4Causes introduced ownership experience days?

Owning racehorses outright is an expensive hobby, I’m sure we can all agree. Thankfully, however, through the introduction of racing clubs and syndicates, racing has become much more accessible and affordable for those who wish to get involved.

Not only that, but racing clubs and syndicates offer the opportunity for people to join forces and enjoy the social aspect of ownership with like minded people, enjoying the thrill and sense of comradery together.

With that said, it is a commitment to sign up to a racing club or syndicate, when you’re not even so sure what the experience will be like in return.

This is where Sports4Causes comes in.

We want to provide our customers with an ownership taster; this will help you decide if ownership is for you.

Our ownership days must come with a warning - our guests have had such positive experiences on course, that many have proceeded with long term ownership options – you may be in for the long haul after a day on course with Sports4Causes!

40 % of all badge revenue goes straight to our affiliated charity, Racing Welfare. To find out more about Racing Welfare and the amazing work they do within our industry: https://racingwelfare.co.uk/
