Employed sports coaches are great examples of people who could be due a tax rebate and don’t even know it! If you are employed and incur costs because of your work duties it is likely tax relief can be claimed on those costs.
A sports coach can claim tax relief for:
- Specialist clothing such as football boots or trainers
- Washing of uniform or specialist clothing as long as the cost is not reimbursed by your employer
- Using your own vehicle to travel to temporary workplaces – for example a football coach traveling to different schools in the community
- Membership fees paid into some professional bodies
You can find out more about tax and being a sports coach in our free sports coach tax rebate guide and you can use our tax calculators to help you work out how much money you can claim back.
