Sports development

Whether you’re a participant, volunteer or spectator, sport has the ability to change your life for the better. Our Sports Development team is committed to providing a high-quality network of clubs, coaches, pathways, volunteers, facilities and sporting opportunities.

The people of the Scottish Borders are proud of the region’s sporting legacy and we will work to ensure sport continues to be a dynamic and invigorating part of life.

We are dedicated to increasing the number of participants in sport in the Borders and inspiring everyone to improve their lives through physical activity and sport. Our team assists volunteers to lead four ClubSport organisations, these are Community Sports Hubs covering all of the region. We also support various groups to develop disability sport, performance sport and to run programmes for a number of specific sports. In some instances, we partner with National Governing Bodies of Sport to have dedicated in-house regional support.
