Strategic Plan
Sport and Recreation Victoria’s Strategic Plan is the government’s vision to build an inclusive, collaborative and strong sport and recreation sector supporting a more active Victoria.
In 2004, consultation with the sport and recreation sector was undertaken to determine priorities which will ensure lasting benefits after the 2006 Commonwealth Games. This conversation with the sector was critical to the development of actions set out in the Strategic Plan.
Sport and Recreation 2005-2010: A Five Year Plan for Sport and Recreation Victoria is about:
- People being active in their communities (Strategic Direction 1)
- People working together to get the most out of Government investment in sporting facilities (Strategic Directions 2 and 3)
- People achieving individually, through supporting family members or their local team, or through pride in national and state performance (Strategic Direction 4)
