Why Sport & Physical Activity?

Taking part in sport and physical activity can enrich people’s quality of life, by improving health and well-being. It can help raise self-esteem and confidence and provide enjoyment, which in turn builds stronger, safer communities, strengthens the economy and helps to develop the skills of local people.

What is a County Sports Partnership?

County Sports Partnerships (CSPs) bring sport into the community and are a fundamental part of Sport England’s delivery system.  The CSP is a partnership of agencies committed to providing a high quality single system for people to benefit from sport and physical activity.

A CSP has the following characteristics:

• It is underpinned by a commitment to equity
• It seeks to ensure that sports development is driven through National Governing Body plans
• Action is based on local need - influencing the understanding, interpretation and deployment of national, regional and local policy
• It is focused on investing in, and valuing people
• It is committed to achieving quality standards through continuous improvement and excellence in order to demonstrate impact
• It is fundamentally independent so that the core partnership team is impartial in order to broker progress.

County Sports Partnership Network

 

Energize Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin is one of a network of 49 County Sports Partnerships (CSPs) in England. 

The network of CSPs communicate on a range of issues which effect CSPs and their partners on a regular basis and via a range of methods, one of these being the County Sports Partnership Network (CSPN) website.

The CSPN website has been redeveloped and gone from being an internally accessed site, to a public one.

For information on CSPN and CSPs in general, visit the new website, http://www.cspnetwork.org/.
