About us
We are the national organisation responsible for developing and promoting sport and physical activity in Wales. Our role is to advise and add value. We work closely with our key partners to ensure that the delivery and development of sport at both a national and local level provides the people of Wales with every opportunity to excel at their sport of choice. We see the benefits of sport in the widest sense; not solely impacting on improving the physical health of the nation, but also in bringing communities together, building confidence in young and old, providing new skills and training and attracting investment into Wales. To unite a proud sporting nation is not only ours, but the sector’s vision, where every child is hooked on sport for life and Wales is a Nation of Champions. We aim to not only improve the level of sports participation at grassroots level but also provide our aspiring athletes with the support required to compete successfully on the world stage. This vision isn't necessarily new. We're still focused on getting more people, more active, more often, and on Wales securing enviable sporting success. But it's noticeably different - ambitious in scope, bold in its outcomes and highly challenging for all of us working in sport. We want a diverse, passionate and skilled sporting workforce that encourages, inspires and supports everyone who participates in sport.

Neil Robinson’s coaching has helped put Welsh para table tennis on the map. With 36% of the British team at #Paris2024 coming from Wales, it’s clear his approach is paying off. 🏓 Mae hyfforddiant Neil Robinson wedi helpu i roi tenis bwrdd para Cymraeg ar y map. Gyda 36% o dîm Prydain yn #Paris2024 yn dod o Gymru, mae’n amlwg bod ei gwaith gwych wedi'i adlewyrchu. 🏓 “For me, the best coaching environment is about developing and nurturing good relationships with players,” says Robinson. 🗣 “I mi, mae’r amgylchedd hyfforddi gorau yn ymwneud â datblygu a meithrin perthnasoedd da gyda chwaraewyr,” meddai Robinson. 🗣 But Neil’s work goes beyond just elite athletes too. He’s also bringing sport into the lives of those recovering from spinal injuries, helping them rediscover the joy and motivation that sport can provide. 🌟 Ond mae gwaith Neil yn mynd y tu hwnt i athletwyr elitaidd yn unig hefyd. Mae hefyd yn dod â chwaraeon i fywydau’r rhai sy’n gwella o anafiadau i’r asgwrn cefn, gan eu helpu i ailddarganfod y llawenydd a’r cymhelliant y gall chwaraeon eu darparu. 🌟 Read more about how Neil's inclusive coaching philosophy 👇 Darllenwch fwy am athroniaeth hyfforddi gynhwysol Neil 👇 https://lnkd.in/eYaykieg https://lnkd.in/eK4vSJ_M 📸 British Para Table Tennis
