Community Sport Hubs provide a home for sport. They focus on the clubs and other local organisations that want to work together to improve the sport offered in their local communitiy. A community sport hub is focused on the clubs around a sport centre, community centre, school, park or a playing field pavilion. In some cases a community sport hub combines a number of these places, or it may simple centre on a single-venue hosting many clubs. The 'hub' is essentially a collective of progressive sport clubs working together in a local community. Each community sport hub is unique but the common thread is that each works to the following five principles:
Growth in participation
Engage the local community
Promote community leadership
Offer a range of sporting opportunities
Bring all appropriate (key) partners/ groups/people together. Each community sport hub develops their own vision and values to ensure all involved are clear on the work they will do together, which is detailed in a simple, clear plan to improve the sport on offer. The Executive Committee for the Park Mains Community Sport Hub consists of:
PMCSH Chairman: Josh Anderson
PMCSH Chairwoman: Susan Wright
PMCSH Treasurer & Secretary: Allan Haldane
