The public sector is the local authority The local authority is elected by local people Its role is to provide a service to the local people and to improve the quality of their lives Sport /exercise is part of this service The majority of the provision comes from the public sector. Its role is to improve the quality of life for its taxpayers and benefits society . This includes promoting health and well being of each person

  8. Why does the private sector provide sport? The private sector consists of business men and women Business wants to make a profit To make a profit in sport it offers: • goods and services for hire or sale (high quality) • facilities and activities to play or watch • clubs and activities available to members only.

  9. Why does the voluntary sector provide sport? The voluntary sector includes all the sports clubs and organisations that are run by volunteers (community centres church groups) The volunteers are enthusiasts, who care about sport/exercise and are interested in it Because of this, they give up their time and energy for free, to help people like you!
