Objective criteria, based on national surveys, official statistics and performance data will be used to allocate investment to national governing bodies and regional partnerships.
This will enable a transparent and objective approach to investment and reduces the bureaucratic burden on partners to provide data and evidence to Sport Wales.
A detailed technical briefing of the criteria has been produced. The criteria are split into participation and performance elements, with an overall funding score for each national governing body established when the two sections are brought together. Separate criteria are used to determine the funding of regional entities, based on population, socio-economic and environmental factors.
