We continue to follow Government and medical guidance on the Covid-19 virus to play our part in safeguarding public health and to fulfill our responsibilities for the well-being of the SGA community, our staff and our partners.
We will be delivering our 2021 events calendar in a virtual environment until it is safe to return to physical gatherings. We will keep everyone who has registered up to date through our emails and newsletters.

Why governance matters
The Code for Sports Governance has set a new standard for the sector. It requires organisations to be open and accountable to build trust with stakeholders. Boards must set the tone for organisational culture and demonstrate effective stewardship. Done well, governance enables organisations to thrive and meet their goals. Done poorly, it leaves organisations, those who work in them and those they serve, vulnerable and at risk. So, what does good sports governance look like?
