On Monday I attended the first part of the Sport Bedford network meeting at Bedford International Athletics Stadium. The event was essentially a relaunch of Sport Bedford, which will now be focused towards ensuring a strong, open network of local clubs and be really responsive to the needs of local sports clubs in Bedford Borough. It will have a smaller executive, which will be focused on delivering a small set of priorities identified by sports clubs themselves. This is a really positive development for local sports clubs, who rely almost exclusively on the hard work and commitment of volunteers who love their sport and go out of their way to give others the opportunity to enjoy them too.
