As a member of the Board you can help everyone in Scotland enjoy these benefits and have your voice heard in building sport for the future. Be part of a system which makes the best use of all Scotland’s sports facilities as well as its great outdoors and helps people to take part at whatever level they choose.

One or two of the appointments will be people with expertise and experience of governance, finance and audit.
