Access of staff and the wider Cambridge community to University sports facilities is one of the topics due to be considered by a review committee.
Members of the University have until this Friday to submit views to the review committee on the governance and management arrangements for sport within the University.
The Council, at its meeting on 26 November last year, accepted the recommendation from the Sports Syndicate and the Registrary that there was a need for an independent review of the Sports Syndicate and the Department of Physical Education.
The review committee, whose members are listed below, will consider:
• The current governance and oversight arrangements for sport in the University, and to make recommendations to the Council
• The current arrangements for the management and funding of sport in the University, and to make recommendations to the Council.
In doing so, it will also attempt to articulate an overall vision of the role of sport in the University.
Evidence or views on any aspect of the review are welcome (and should be emailed to sport.review@admin.cam.ac.uk) although the review committee is particularly interested in hearing submissions on the following:
• What should be the role of sport at the University?
• What should be the relationship between sport and the rest of the University?
• The role and membership of the Sports Syndicate
• The relationship between the Sports Syndicate and the Physical Education Department
• Financial matters relating to the Sports Syndicate and sport more generally
• Access of staff and the wider Cambridge community to University sports facilities.
