  aligning with SSP boundaries where possible
• Time constraints on schools. Forward planning
  with calendar of competition events
• Priority sports and target age groups, abilities
• Developing alternative effective competition
  structures
• Effectively utilising Sports Leaders
• Creating sustainable links with clubs, and
  liaising with NGBs where none exist

The Challenge

• That any young person in Sussex should have the
  opportunity to participate in competitive sport,
  whether they be social participants, or elite
  performers.
• That they should receive the appropriate level of
  coaching to allow them to meet their potential.
• That pathways exist into local clubs, and upwards
  through to county, regional, and national
  competition.
