Introduction
The concepts of opportunity (are people able to usefacilities?) and provision (do adequate facilitiesexist?) have combined effect upon access to sportingfacilities.
There are economic and other considerations that oftenprevent those most in need from being able to takeadvantage of the opportunities that may exist. Theseinclude cost, local availability, transport, the range ofprovisionand the times at which facilities may beused. Any lack of appropriate facility provision will be farmore disadvantageous to those who are unemployed,disabled, very oldor very young.

Introduction
Why do you think that some activities cannot beprovided for at the same level?
It may not be reasonable or possible to providefacilities for some activities, i.e. coastal activities,mountain activities, etc.
Some activities may not be too prohibitively
expensive to provide for extensively, i.e. thoserequiring high levels of technology such as ice-skating or indoor skiing.

Introduction
Funding and services associated with sport andrecreation at local, regional and national levels areprovided through three avenues of funding:-
Government Private funding/Sponsorship
Voluntary (i.e. unpaid officials)
Remember much work done by officials is done on avoluntary basis, often in sports with highly paid top levelperformers, but especially at local/club level.

on participation in sport and activity, we must

Private Enterprise
An increasing number of recreational and sportingfacilities is now offered by private health and
sports clubs to those who can pay for them.These can range from squash courts and gyms toluxury health spas and private swimming pools.
These enterprises operate for profit and are runas private businesses. Members normally pay a
joining fee, an annual subscription fee each timethey use the facilities.

Private, Voluntary Clubs and
Associations There is a big difference between private
facilities that are run as businesses to make aprofit and those run by their members and whichexist solely to provide playing and social facilities
for them.
These non-profit making clubs and associationsare usually run by elected committees. Many
local football, rugby, cricket and tennis clubs arerun in this way. Whether its private or voluntary,profit making or not, both have the effect ofproviding facilities for those who can afford topay.
