“The Benefits of Forming a Community Sport, Recreation and School Alliance” Presentation to Congress of Presidents April 14, 2005

Initiatives that Support the Need to Coordinate Community Sport, Recreation and School Delivery Systems

Manitoba Action Plan for Sport (April, 2002) –“Sport Manitoba believes that a seamless delivery of programs and services will strengthen all networks and provide greater community access to sport and all its benefits.” –“Sport Manitoba envisions an even closer integration between school and community based sport programs.” –Through ongoing cross-sectoral planning, Sport Manitoba’s goal is to create an efficient, effective and seamless sport delivery system.

Canadian Sport Policy (May, 2002) –“Sport is best developed at the local level where participation is provided through sport organizations, school settings, municipal recreation and other community based organizations.” –“…calls for barriers to participation in sport to be identified and eliminated, making sport more accessible to all.”

What is an Alliance? Two or more organizations working together to: –deal with commons issues or needs, –enhance, and if possible integrate, the delivery of their services/programs –achieve commonly shared goals

Community Sport, Recreation and School Alliances Membership includes all interested local not-for- profit sport organizations (voting) and other key community based stakeholder organizations Their major reason to exist is…“To have the entire community care about all of “their sports” and to work together to meet their their athletes- participants long term needs”

Community Sport Alliances – Provide a platform and an ongoing process to: discuss common challenges, problems and needs develop strategies to share resources celebrate community successes – Work with and are supported by their municipal government and the local school board(s)

Once established Sport Alliances can Provide continuity between, and address possible gaps, in services and programs Avoid groups competing for the same ‘targeted participants’ Reduce duplication of programs, service and facilities; and their associated costs Rank community issues and needs by their overall importance

Develop a common Code of Ethics that governs all sport in the community Coordinate the allocation of resources and facilities more effectively Share ideas and ways & means of doing business together Provide opportunities for more coordinated and effective fundraising

Sport Legacy Trust Background Remaining capital if any to be distributed proportionately to backstop beneficiaries on 12 th anniversary At current annual distribution rate, Trust capital is expected to be fully distributed by the end of the 10 th year

Sport Legacy Trust Trust Characteristics & Status Trustees have absolute discretion over capital distribution Trust is not grant or entitlement program Annual application process instituted to access funds 9 application periods taken to date (including 2005)

Sport Legacy Trust $2,065,554 distributed to PSOs over 8 years from 1997 – 2004 at an average rate of $258,194/year Remaining capital ($477,281) is projected to be fully distributed in the Trust’s 9 th and 10 th operating years, i.e and 2006

Sport Legacy Trust Application Process Only backstop beneficiaries are eligible to apply Backstop beneficiaries are PSOs funded by the Manitoba Sports Federation in (Agreement Schedule A) Backstop beneficiaries may submit 2 applications/year Partnerships between backstop beneficiaries are encouraged

Sport Legacy Trust Backstop beneficiaries may also partner with non-backstop beneficiaries, e.g. clubs, facility owners, organizing committees Projects with total project costs under $5,000 not eligible Projects are evaluated “as is” (no follow-up) on the basis of the factors identified in the application information sheet

Sport Legacy Trust Factors Considered in the Evaluation of Projects (a) Priority of project within sport’s long-term Game Plan (b)Evidence of or potential for broad impact on sport participants or participation rates (c)Evidence of or potential for multi-sport benefits or benefits to other sport bodies

Sport Legacy Trust (d)Evidence of sustainability or of potential for generating cost-savings or revenues (e)Evidence of PSO financial or other commitments (f)Evidence of good planning work, sound research, successful project implementation

Sport Legacy Trust Fund Trust is not part of Sport Manitoba but a separate entity Application for assistance may be approved in full, in part or declined, as determined by the Trustees Terms of offer may be amended only upon request in writing approved by the Trustees

Sport Legacy Trust Fund Business like approach is expected in the management of project budgets, signing authorities, timelines and records Backstop beneficiaries remain accountable for Trust funds received when partnered with non-backstop beneficiaries Failure of a project to proceed in the year approved, means another project was needlessly declined

Sport Legacy Trust Fund Key Considerations Trustees fiduciary responsibility: – Manage Trust capital prudently – Assist PSOs to provide legacy for future amateur sport participants and promote sport growth – Maximize distributions to backstop beneficiaries – Minimize operating costs

Sport Legacy Trust Fund Trust operates on a calendar year. Annual report to backstop beneficiaries covers all project distributions to date plus latest audited financial statements 2006 will be final application period
