£493m investment for sport
Sport England has announced that it is putting £493 million into 46 sports between 2013 and 2017. Speaking at the SAPCA Annual Confer- ence, Chris Perks from Sport England announced that the money will be distributed through 46 national governing bodies – from angling to wres- tling – that have at least 75,000 people taking part in England every week. The conference, attended by over 90 SAPCA members, included an inspiring keynote speech by Baroness Sue Campbell, chair of UK Sport. Baroness Campbell talked about winning strat- egies and how UK Sport is now the best in the world at attracting world-class sporting events. In addition to Sport England and UK Sport, conference delegates heard about the future strategies of Sport Scotland, Sport Wales, the LTA, Badminton England and UK Athletics. A benefit of SAPCA membership is access to informative and exclusive presentations made by leading UK sports organisations such as those at SAPCA’s annual conference.
