Prospects/Plans

• Instilling stronger sense of commitment and
  ownership in all sporting partners
• Giving further support to partners to refine or
  reformulate their development programmes in order
  to fit with the government priorities
• Forge alliances with more specialized and
  credible institutions for enhancement of
  competence, capacity and professionalism
• Identify and reiterate the role of partners and
  recognize their strengths for strengthened
  partnership

  Evaluation Plan for the Country.

26
Challenges

• The progress made to date in sport development is
  commendable, however we realize the need to
  learn
• lessons from past plans and be able to do
• differently
• The sports fraternity still needs a common
  understanding of primary objectives, strategic
  focus and alignment of functions and available
  resources, with other sectors (e.g. Health,
  Welfare, Early Childhood Dev, Culture Crime)
• The current funding is inadequate. The SASC is
  fitting in sometimes there is no proper
  consultation between Ministry and SASC on the
  Budget Votes.

27
Challenges

• Ensuring that the process of planning is informed
  by the Stake-holders needs.
• Need to intensify financing activities as up
  until now its a matter of survival, avoiding
  embarrassment and reliance on LOTTO Funding.
• Slow pace of synchronization of functions.
