Sport Unlimited
Plans will target Young People from across the segment and will include provision of activities in areas of deprivation. The intention of the work strand is to link with partners from the wider ‘Young People agenda’ where effective partnership working will be important to help target
and deliver in these areas.
team BEDS&LUTON is responsible for the delivery of the work strand. Their major role is to co-ordinate the ongoing planning and implementation process that will lead to ‘joined up’ and integrated delivery for Young People across both sporting and wider ‘positive activities’ agendas. A critical role for tB&L will be to identify providers (including clubs) that offer high quality and sustainable activities for young people. There will be an emphasis on ensuring coaches selected by providers offer high quality and compelling activities to young people.
The work strand will aim to involve 19,000 Children and Young People in attractive and sustainable sporting activities over the delivery period 2008 to 2011.
Communication between SSPs and tB&L will be vital in ensuring that plans for the Sport Unlimited Work strand are Children and Young People focused – i.e. providing affordable, accessible, appropriate and attractive activities.
In particular, intelligence provided by the ‘Partnership Evaluation and Priorities Documents’ generated by SSPs will be crucial in ensuring plans have Young People at their heart, are high quality and effective. This intelligence will enable plans to target specific young people by gender, attitude to sport and age enabling plans to be very local and very precise.
