Sports Development in Torbay

The Sports Development Department for Torbay Council was created in 1998. On 1st April 2005 the Sports Development Service role was handed over to Paignton Community & Sports College.

The aim is to develop opportunities for everyone throughout Torbay to participate in sport. This includes developing links with schools and clubs and promoting key elements of Active Sports, Active Schools and Active Communities programmes as stated within Sport England's development programme. Torbay Council and Paignton Communtiy & Sports College also work in partnership with local agencies including the Youth Sports Trust, Sports Coach UK, Sport England, National Governing Bodies of Sport, sport clubs, youth groups and other organisations with an interest in sport.

Since its establishment, Sports Development in Torbay has introduced several sports programmes and initatives. Both organisations are constantly working on the development of other programmes and initatives in order to improve the sporting life of everyone throughout Torbay.
