KiwiSport

We have distributed into the community over $2.8 Million dollars of Kiwisport funding over the last three years to meet the Kiwisport objectives:

• More Kids - increase the number of school age children participating in organized sport – during school, after school and by strengthening links with sports clubs

• More Opportunities – increase the availability and accessibility of sport opportunities for all school aged children

• Better Skills – support children in developing skills that will enable them to participate effectively in sport at both primary and secondary level

Through our initial consultations in 2009, our local communities put priorities on:

• Free sport activities
• Sport opportunities undertaken in local or cluster areas to avoid travel issues
• Increase school club links
• Training of volunteers/parents
• Increasing the number of coaches
• Up skilling of coaching

The Kiwisport fund for the next three year period will exceed $3 Million.

Have your say on where the priorities should be, going forward, at one of our upcoming public consultation forums.
