Welcome to SportTayside & Fife

Welcome to the SportTayside & Fife Sports Partnership website. The Partnership works across local, regional and national organisations. It is therefore important that a planned approach is taken to develop sport within Tayside & Fife, maximising effectiveness and making a positive impact. SportTayside & Fife is therefore taking a lead role in this process to ensure that the selected Scottish Governing Bodies of Sport’s national strategies are filtered through to local level and the sports move forward in a co-ordinated manner in line with the rest of Scotland.

A strategic framework for the Partnership is currently being written and each of our sport specific and coaching team are undertaking a similar exercise in order to:

• Strengthen the infrastructure of sport in Tayside & Fife
• Increase participation in sport leading to lifelong involvement
• Improve performances of our developing athletes to achieve national standards or Area Institute of Sport level

The SportTayside & Fife Management Team will continue to focus on: Coaches, Officials, Volunteers, Clubs, Facilities and sport specific Player Improvement Programmes and work in partnership with local partners, to provide increased participation opportunities at local level in our priority sports (Athletics, Basketball, Clubgolf, Gymnastics, Hockey, Rugby, Swimming and Girl’s & Women’s Football).
