BASIS (the British Association for Sustainable Sport) has announced the launch of a new strategic partnership with the Green Sport Alliance (GSA).
It follows a roundtable session led by the two organisations at the Beyond Sport Summit - held in London on 23-25 July - bringing together 50 practitioners from around the world.
Nearly 150 professional and collegiate sports facilities from more than 18 leagues will come together in a bid to reduce ecological impact and to improve the performance of venues.
More details will be made available in due course, with the respective boards to reconvene at the GSA Summit in Seattle, US during September to discuss strategic plans for 2013-14.
BASIS officially launched in October 2011 in order to help "educate, share best practice and integrate sustainability issues" across the UK-wide sport sector.
• The association has also announced that its 2012 conference will take place at Cheltenham Racecourse on 20 September. Details about the line-up of speakers are yet to be confirmed.
