Resolutions 5.1 One resolution had been received, from Glasgow University: “Glasgow University Basketball Club propose that registration rule 2.3. from the regulations and policies for all basketball be reviewed and changed. As of 19.07.17, the rule reads: 2.3. Registration of participants in National competition, using the above procedure, can be made up to and including the second Friday in January of the present season.

Questions 6.3 There were a number of points and questions raised, including: - Issues with the administration of the West RDLs. KP undertook to improve this. - A very short programme for the U14 development squad in the past season. KP noted that a replacement of the “Future Starz” programme was being developed to fill this gap. - U18 Men National Squad programme had been stopped before the competitive phase. KP advised that too few selected players were available to continue the programme this year. - The recruitment process to appoint Tony Garbelotto as Scotland Senior Men’s Coach. DW noted that the process adopted reflected the short timescales ahead of the Commonwealth Games and was considered a pragmatic and robust approach. It was accepted that greater clarity could have been provided to the wider basketball community and that there was merit in carrying out an independent review of recruitment processes for future Senior and Youth national team appointments to support attracting suitable candidates. - Whether the FIBA exemption to play European Division C for Senior Men and Women be of benefit to athletes. KP noted that this had not been a priority, however, it was acknowledged that the standard of competition had improved and this position would be reviewed on an annual basis. - In relation to officiating, a view that there is retention of only 1 in 8 officials completing training courses. KP noted that the approach is changing towards an environment based approach where officials were given appropriate support and tailored training to aid development, progression and retention. KP welcomed any ideas on how this could be improved further. - It was noted that there are similar problems with recruitment of coaches in the North East. KP noted that the coaching qualification and education structure is being reviewed based on feedback from the coaching survey earlier this year. 7. 2016-2017 Financial Statements 7.1 The approved Financial Statements had been circulated. 7.2 ECp noted that the financial year had been challenging, particularly due to post-Brexit exchange rates negatively impacting on the costs of international programmes. However, a small surplus had been generated and added to the reserves. Questions 7.3 There were a number of points raised, including: - A request for more detailed income and expenditure figures.

The survey collected information from nearly 11,000 people across over 2,100 sports clubs and physical activity groups between December 2019 to March 2020. Respondents were aged eight years old upwards. Responses are primarily from club members and participants but also from coaches, volunteers and other people directly involved in sports clubs and physical activity groups across Scotland. The results have been weighted1 to take account of the Sports Governing Body (SGB) club membership populations in Scotland (age, sex and size of governing body membership). More detail on the survey method can be found in Appendix 2. The Active Scotland Outcomes Framework The Active Scotland Outcomes Framework (ASOF) is the Scottish Government’s policy framework for delivering a more active Scotland. This framework defines the Scottish Government’s key goals and targets for sport and physical activity over the next decade. Indicators for this framework are based on survey data covering the whole of Scotland. The ASOF covers a wide range of activity, including sport, fitness, active play, active transport, and other physical activity. In effect, these outcomes cover the entirety of the sport and physical activity sector. Click here to find out more about the Active Scotland Outcomes Framework.

Following the initial expressions of interest, sportscotland consulted with each of the SGBs concerned, to develop a clear understanding of any gaps they have in their facilities networks and to establish the extent to which they would use the NPCS. As a result of this work, sports which have identified a strategic need for performance facilities in key geographic areas have been highlighted with a primary need at the NPCS. Other sports which could take advantage of using the core facilities but do not have this primary need at performance level have been highlighted as a secondary users in the table below. Primary Need Secondary Use Athletics Badminton Basketball Cricket Football Equestrian Rugby Handball Tennis Hockey Volleyball Shinty Squash and Racketball SGB Information The information in the attached sheets should be used for guidance only and may change during the bid process. Further details of their facility requirement, usage and location preferences can be obtained from either the SGBs or sportscotland. It would be unrealistic for us to expect that all of the facility requirements identified by SGBs could be delivered through the NPCS. While our focus will be on ensuring the core facilities are delivered, we do want potential bidders to take cognisance of the geographical gaps identified by these SGBs when they are developing their bids.

  • Children and Vulnerable Adults Policy And
    Child Wellbeing and Protection Policy Creating a Safe Environment in Basketball for Children and Young People Policy Approved: 31.07.19 Guidance: Children’s Wellbeing in Scotland It is important to recognise what we mean by children’s wellbeing. As part of Scotland’s national approach to ‘Getting it Right for Every Child’ (GIRFEC), the wellbeing wheel (see item 7.1) demonstrates the eight indicators that are believed to be essential for a child’s overall wellbeing. By having a universal language and understanding for all people who work with children, collectively we can contribute to promoting, supporting and safeguarding a child’s wellbeing whether they are in an educational, health, community or sports setting. It is essential that in sport we understand not only how participation in sport contributes to these wellbeing indicators, but also what we need to do if we are ever worried that something is impacting a child’s wellbeing. As part of the ‘Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014’, the concept of wellbeing and the GIRFEC approach is now enshrined in law. All enquiries regarding this policy and procedures should be directed to: Child Wellbeing and Protection Officer basketballscotland Caledonia House South Gyle Edinburgh EH12 9DQ Tel: 0131 317 7260 Email: [email protected] Web: www.basketball-scotland.com CONTENTS Item No 1.
