This is no. 6 in a series of background reports being prepared during 2002/03 to inform the revision of Sport 21, the national strategy for sport in Scotland.
This report was commissioned to examine the condition of sport in its specific role as a local government service, including current issues pertaining to sport in schools. In doing so, it seeks to clarify the capacity of sport in Scotland and local government to contribute to each other’s goals. It explores the potential opportunities for sport emerging from the new operational context facing local government.
