SPORTS DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY
A
Strategy for the Development of Sport (pdf 234k)
This document has been prepared as a Strategy for Sport in
Caerphilly County Borough. It is hoped that all those involved
in sport will take ownership of the Strategy as a context
for their own contributions. Accordingly 'we' refers to all
those who have a part to play in sport.
The length and style is deliberately concise. The focus is
on ultimate outcomes, rather than the means by which they
will be achieved. This Strategy document is not an end in
itself. It is only the beginning - the first step. It must
be a living document, constantly revisited and updated as
circumstances change.
It has been informed by the Council's key priorities, by
existing local and national strategies, national governing
body strategies community plans and consultation with partners.
The research conducted during the preparation period has
been used to develop improved understanding of the present
position of sport in the County Borough and to inform the
development of a rationale to underpin identified priorities.
These priorities form the basis of the work programmes, action
plans and sports development balanced scorecard.
It also provides a basis for investment in sport in the county
borough. The priorities determined should be an integral element
in the context of attracting capital and/or revenue funding
from various external sources.
The success of the Strategy depends on the co-operation amongst
the many partners involved in sport and it is only by sharing
a common set of goals and partnerships for action that we
can bring about the vision for sport in Caerphilly County
Borough advocated by this Strategy.
