Sport Wales launches community strategy
Sport Wales has announced the launch of a new community strategy that has been designed to challenge the nation's sport sector into accelerating its efforts to increase participation.
The new document features details of how the organisation will be "far more targeted" with its resources, while investing in partners looking to deliver more opportunities for children.
Groups that seek to introduce informal or social versions of traditional sports and clubs that are already thriving but still look to grow are also among those in line to benefit.
The launch of the strategy was attended by Welsh sports minister Huw Lewis, who revealed that a further £9m of Lottery funding will be invested in community sport over three years.
Lewis said: "Every young person should have the chance to shine and be given an opportunity to contribute positively to their community, irrespective of their circumstances."
