Abstract
On the 11th August 2009 Kiwisport was launched by the Prime Minister, through two funding channels. The Ministry of Education manage the Direct Fund, which is a $12 million per year operating grant, delivered to schools on a per-capita basis. Sport NZ manage the Regional Partnership Fund (RPF), which is $8.5 million per year distributed to community organisations via Regional Sports Trusts.
The aims of Kiwisport are to:
Increase participation in children, both inside and outside of school hours; and
Increase the number of opportunities children have to participate in sport, by making opportunities accessible and available to them; and
Develop skills in children to allow them to participate effectively in all sporting opportunities.
We are now in the second investment period of Kiwisport; 2012 – 2015. RSTs have been allocated a combined total of $25,455,000 ($8,485,000 per year) for this investment period.
This report is a cumulative report on Kiwisport expenditure covering the period 2009/10 – 2013/14.
