The SRU have asked the in return for the event, the successful host City needs to demonstrate how they will develop rugby in the local area. Recommendations It is recommended that the Resources Management Committee support this event to come to Aberdeen in November and agree that if the event were to come to Aberdeen, it should be the highlight of a range of rugby development initiatives in the City to ensure a lasting legacy from the event, including: 1. A range of structural improvements to rugby pitches to take place up to the value of £100,000 funded from the Sports Strategy approved budget within the Non-housing Capital Programme. 2. A further two years of financial support (2008/09 and 2009/10) of £10,000 each year towards the Aberdeen Youth Rugby Association to deliver rugby development in Aberdeen linked to a Service Level agreement. This funding should come from the Sports Grants budget. 3.

In addition, it is recommended that the Committee agrees to the following in kind support for the event to maximise its potential for positive publicity for the City including: 4.

Implementation The implementation of the recommendations within this report will be the responsibility of the Strategist (Arts, Culture, Heritage & Sport), along with relevant officers within Neighbourhood Services and Continuous Improvement. Resource Implications People This work will be managed within existing workloads. : Finance £100,000 of capital funding for developing rugby facilities to come : from the Sports Strategy budget within the Non-housing Capital Programme. £6,000 of funding towards the Aberdeen Youth Rugby Association for the development of rugby was agreed by Resources Management Committee on 4 December 2007 (achieving match funding of £19,000). Further revenue funding of £10,000 in years 2009 and 2010 will come from the Sports Grants budget for these years. The provision of the Welcome Banner can be met from within exiting promotion budgets. Systems & It is recommended that the event be promoted through the Technology : Council’s website and portal. No additional systems are required. Property The development work will improve existing council rugby facilities. : Other Equipment Some of the development work will include the purchase of : equipment such as posts. Other There are no implications arising directly : Other Implications Health & Safety SRU will be responsible for ensuring the Health and Safety of the : participants and spectators at the event. Risk Management If this opportunity is not exploited, Aberdeen could lose out on an : international sporting event which would have a negative impact on the regions economy, Aberdeen’s image, Aberdeen City Council’s image and for the development of rugby and sport in the city and region. Human Rights/ The rugby development programme and linked promotional Equalities/Diversity : activities would ensure equality of opportunity, with specific programmes for hard to reach groups including women and girls being key aspects of the project. Special focus will be given to social inclusion zones e.g. Woodside, Northfield. Children have minimal opportunities or finance to participate in any sport. These areas have special challenges re integration of many Eastern European families, and sporting participation can help with integration into the local communities Sustainability One of the key outcomes of the project will be to ensure a lasting : legacy from the event, including developing fit for purpose facilities and developing sustainable lifelong pathways for rugby participation and development within the city, including facilitating coach education and leadership courses for young people, and working with local clubs. Environmental Improvements to the pitches will have a positive environmental : impact. Social The event and its legacy activities will aim to encourage interest : and participation in rugby and other sports. A programme of additional opportunities to participate will be targeted at marginalised young people who do not traditionally take part in activities and are at risk of being involved in anti-social behaviour. Economic This event and its associated legacy activities would have a : positive economic impact – including those directly arising as a result of the event (i.e. visitors to the city), and in the longer term by increasing participation in sport, reducing anti-social behaviour, increasing club membership. Construction The recommendations include improvements to existing grass : pitches. Signature : Main Considerations 1. Background 1.1 In May 2005, Aberdeen City Council in partnership with the SRU and Aberdeen Football Club brought the Scotland v Barbarians rugby match to Aberdeen. 1.2 This event was perceived by all to be immensely successful and resulted in a sell out crowd at Pittodrie Stadium, and a high level of positive media coverage both locally and nationally. In addition, and perhaps more importantly, from a sporting perspective, the event left behind a positive and lasting legacy: A range of supporting activities took place, within schools and local communities (within and around Aberdeen), to engage and excite children and adults about the event and rugby as a participation sport. These activities were planned, supported and delivered via a partnership approach involving a range of people including the SRU (marketing, sports development and profile players), local and regional rugby clubs, Aberdeen Football Club and Aberdeen City Council officers, and included: • Canterbury Tour, Thistle Sports, Rose Street, Aberdeen visit from 4 Scotland players. • Club visit to Ellon RFC with Scotland players • Club visit to Garioch RFC with Scotland players • Scotland Squad open training session at Countesswells, Aberdeen, prior to Gordonians mini rugby event & Caledonia Senior 7’s. • Scotland players visit to Aberdeen Grammar Former Players Rugby FC mini tournament at Rubislaw. • School visits x 3 - 1 Development Officer & 2 Scotland Players visited each school • Aberdeen S2 Invitational 7's – heats played at Woodside playing fields with the final held during the half time of the Scotland v Barbarians game. 1.3 For this event, the Council provided support of £25,000 from the Energising Aberdeen fund towards marketing and publicity materials. In addition the Council provided in kind support including: • Circulating promotional flyers/ posters to schools, other Council facilities, and sports members. • Advertising at 10k Run. • Promotion on Council’s website. • Civic reception • Advertising on lamp posts. • “Welcome to Aberdeen” Union Street Banner. 1.4 A measure of the success of these activities and the way in which they were delivered is that one year after the event, membership of rugby clubs in the city had increased
