Part a
Select two sports organisations involved in sports development schemes and describe their roles, aims and objectives.
Two sports organisations involved in sports development schemes are Sport England and UK sport. Both organisations aim to develop sports however, they aim to do it in different ways, and they aim to help different people.
Sport England is responsible for putting the Government’s plan for sport into action. They are doing this in various ways, such as, giving money to sports organisations in different areas.
Sport England is the name for the English sports council. It is funded by the government (who are currently providing £35 million) and they act as a distributor of National Lottery money (which is currently £200 million). The sports councils for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland work in a similar way.
