Youth Sport Trust partners with kitround to get kit back in the game

Buy and sell pre-loved sports gear and help to raise funds to build brighter futures for young people.

The Youth Sport Trust are proud to have partnered with kitround, the UK’s first marketplace dedicated to preloved sportswear, with a mission to promote positive impact. kitround focuses exclusively on preloved sportswear, recognising the value of extending the lifecycle of sports kit and equipment.

kitround enables private sellers to list their own preloved sports items for free on the kitround website. All sports kit is accepted, from football boots to hockey sticks, gym gear and more.

As part of the process, sellers are encouraged to donate part or all of their sales proceeds to a selected group of charity partners which includes the Youth Sport Trust. This dual purpose—selling and giving back—creates a virtuous cycle.

By signing up to sell your preloved sports gear through kitround, you’ll be supporting the Youth Sport Trust to build brighter futures for children and young people through the power of play and sport.

How you can get involved

Sell Your Gear:

List your preloved sports gear on kitround and choose a portion of the proceeds to be donated to the Youth Sport Trust.

Buy Preloved Gear:

When purchasing equipment on kitround, you’re not only getting great gear at a great price but also supporting community initiatives.

Spread the Word:

Encourage friends, family, and your local sports community to join kitround and help support the Youth Sport Trust. The more people participate, the greater the impact we can have together.

 

Declutter & Do Good:

David Lloyd Clubs and Visa have joined forces with kitround to kickstart an impactful campaign that creates a marketplace that not only declutters homes, but also supports grassroots sport. Kit was collected from more than 100 locations and thanks to the generosity of David Lloyd Club members and Visa employees, more than 6,000 pieces of kit made their way to kitround HQ and are now available for purchase.  

What’s more, 100% of the listed price from every Declutter & Do Good item sold goes directly to three youth sports charities, including the Youth Sport Trust. You’ll see these items clearly marked on the kitround website.

kitround isn’t just about buying and selling—it’s about creating a win-win situation where sportswear finds new homes, sellers give back, and communities thrive. So, whether you’re a seller, buyer, or supporter, the Youth Sport Trust are proud to be part of the kitround family.
