Council officials are in the process of developing a Sports Facilities Strategy and is now entering a second phase of consultations with interested parties.

It is hoped to finalise the Strategy following this consultation period in March and have it published in April 2017.

The aim of the Strategy is to develop a strategic framework for the future provision of sports facilities in Mid Ulster District.

This identifies the need for provision, and the priorities for investment into sports facilities, informed by evidence of need, consultation with key stakeholders and a supply and demand analysis.
