As Chairman of Perth and Kinross Sports Council, I would like to thank all the Committee Members for their hard work and continued support.  Like myself all the members are volunteers it is because of our dedication and time that we are able to help the young athletes and clubs of  Perth and Kinross

2024 will continue to be a challenging year for all especially with the cost of living crisis, P&KSC will continue to offer support during 2024 to all our affiliated Club members and Individual members.  During 2023 the Sports Council Committee awarded £3,500.00 in Club Grants to various clubs, £10,050.00 to Individual Athletes and a £500.00 George Mortimer Bursery to Affiliated Members throughout Perth and Kinross.   The Affiliation period for 2024/25 will be from April 2024 until March 2025 should you wish to Affiliate your Club or as an Individual you will find our Affiliation Form on our membership page, and our Grant Forms and information on our grants page.  The Executive Committee of P&KSC look forward to welcoming new Clubs and individual Athletes for 2024/25.
