Sport England launch Higher Education and Community Sport Partnership Plan

As part of its target to get one million people doing more sport, Sport England believes that 300,000 of the participants could come from across the further and higher education sectors. Since the launch of its 2008-11 Strategy, Sport England has worked with British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) and the wider sector to develop a closer relationship.

Sport England is building a new and meaningful partnership with higher education, embedding it as a key partner in the development of a world leading community sport system.

Working Document - Activities, Key Performance Indicators and Affiliation Fees

The document available for download below is a summary compiled by Alison Usher, Regional Director, ASA South West Region of proposed income / expenditure relating to delivery of programmes in the south west which are aligned with ASA strategy.

The Region currently has a mismatch between its income levels and desired forward budgets to deliver programmes, including those requested by elected discipline representatives. Earlier this year, ASA SW Technical Committees were asked to review their budget submissions and as a result, some development activities have sadly had to be postponed or curtailed.

The Finance Working Group noted that the Region's affiliation fees, currently made up of a universal £1 fee per member and £40 fee per club, have progressively fallen well behind those collected in other regions. In fact it is difficult these days to think of any sustainable annual service that only costs £1, around the cost daily newspaper / milk etc. The impact of such affiliation fees elsewhere is enabling increased or sustained development activity to take place.

The Finance Working Group believed it would help to try and identify how the different regional asa categories benefits were weighted within proposed spending to see if a universal fee across all categories was still appropriate, or whether flexibility on the fee per category could serve the Membership better going forward.

The embedded powerpoint presentation given to the Members Forum and proposed budgets demonstrate that either

  • staged increases in affilation fees will be necessary providing corresponding deficits and underspend are carefully managed, and / or
  • some programmes or activities may need to be cutback accordingly.

At current regional club and affiliation fee levels, deficits against proposed spending would be around £40,868 in 2009/10, £50,601 in 2010/11, £65,516 in 2011/12 and £76,568 in 2012/13.

For example progressively raising regional club and category 1/2/3 fees to

  • £50 and £2 / £3 / £1.50 (reduces deficit to £15,026)
  • £60 and £2.50 / £4 / £2 (reduces deficit to £9,608)
  • £70 and £3 / £4.50 / £2.50 (reduces deficit to £3,906)

The County Treasurers, Finance Working Group, Board representatives will be considering options for the best way forward prior to Annual Council.
