New trust to run Aberdeen sports facilities
Aberdeen City Council (ACC) has confirmed that it has transferred the operation of its sports facilities to leisure trust Sport Aberdeen for a 10-year period.
The Sports Trust Project Board/Working Group has met regularly over the last 18 months in order to oversee the process, which aims to help the local authority meet strategic and financial objectives. Sport Aberdeen is expected to play an integral part in delivering a new physical activity strategy for the city, as well as increasing participation and promoting Aberdeen as a tourist destination.
ACC director of education, culture and sport Annette Bruton said: "I am very pleased that the hard work and commitment of staff and the board of Sport Aberdeen has brought us this excellent result." Sport Aberdeen board member Fred Dalgarno added: "It is now the responsibility of the board and staff of Sport Aberdeen to deliver the quality of service that the citizens of Aberdeen expect."
