PROGRAMME 1: ADMINISTRATION ACHIEVEMENTS • 1. Corporate Services: • 1.1 Human Resources: • In quarter 3, against a target of 20, training was provided to 44 employees. This is due to increased appreciation of the need for better skilling of staff towards doing more with less. • 1.2 Marketing and Communication • Client satisfaction survey was targeted to be conducted in the third quarter; the project implementation was delayed. The questionnaire was however finalised. It will be distributed for input and the final analysed report will be available in quarter 4. • 1.3 Chief Financial Officer • In terms of creditor payment age (days), on average our suppliers received payments within 30 days as stipulated. However, there's still some challenges with regard to some disputable invoices from suppliers. Such disputed invoices do not count in the aforesaid creditor payment days. • 1.4 Performance information: Quarter 3 • SRSA has achieved 55% against the set 90%. This performance percentage will increase by the end of Q4.

PROGRAMME 2: ACTIVE NATION • 2. Active Recreation: • 2.1 Active recreation programmes and campaigns implemented: • 9 Youth Camps across the country were hosted between October and December 2015. More than 2000 young people participated. This includes females, the disabled, and youth previously in conflict with the law, etc. Efforts were also made to ensure that there is a racial balance. 2.2 Community Sport opportunities provided to communities. • The programme targeted to implement 2 programmes Indigenous Games (IG) and Nelson Mandela Sport and Culture Day (NMSCD). Only IG was hosted, in Limpopo Province with all provinces represented. NMSCD could not take place. • 2.2 School Sport: • National School Championship was successfully hosted on 10-16 December 2016 in Pretoria, Gauteng. Over 8000 participants from all the provinces took part. 50 athletes were identified for possible award for Ministerial Bursary for 2017/2018 financial year subject to undergoing scientific, medical and sport-specific testing. If meeting the necessary requirements as per the tests, around 24 learners will be awarded the bursary.
PROGRAMME 2: ACTIVE NATION • 2.3 Provincial sport support and coordination: • 41 225 people actively participated in organised sport and active recreation events hosted by provinces against a target of 737 093. Underperformance is due to delayed/incomplete reporting by provinces, and lack of provision of portfolio of evidence. • A total of 1 737 learners participated in school sport tournaments at a district level against a target 10 700. Annual target was already exceed in the previous quarter, with more learners having participated as part of the build-up to the national championship. • 364 schools, hubs and clubs were provided with equipment and/or attire as per the established norms and standards, against a target of 1 790. Underperformance is due to delayed/incomplete reporting by provinces, and lack of provision of portfolio of evidence. • 1 181 leaner athletes were supported by sport academies against a target of 3 375. The main reason for deviation is reported by provinces to be the delay by District Academies in submitting reports to them, thus affecting their reportage to SRSA. • 20 sport academies received support from provinces against a target of 4. (The target was exceeded because satellite academies are also included).
