Sportscotland's ambitious new corporate strategy outlines vision for active nation
POSTED 17 May 2019 . BY Tom Walker
The strategy outlines Sporstscotland's vision for the future, which is based on six key principles
Sportscotland has unveiled its new corporate strategy, setting out its approach to delivering an active Scotland where "everyone benefits from sport".

The national agency for sport has outlined a vision based on six key principles. These are for the organisation to become "inclusive, accountable, responsive, person-centred, collaborative and world-class".

Entitled Sport For Life, the strategy sets out the assets available to Scottish sport and the approach which will allow the entire population to benefit from sport – even people who don't take part in it.

"In an active Scotland we will all find ways to be physically active every day," the strategy document reads.

"As the national agency for sport our role is to make sure sport plays its part in a thriving Scotland.

"We have an important part to play alongside other agencies to deliver an active Scotland where more people are more active more often.

"We want everyone to take part in sport at the level they choose.

"This could mean pulling on trainers for the first time or performing consistently on the world stage. We work with sports to develop the pathways and resources that support people on their sporting journey."
