The Culture, Media and Sport Committee is consulting on the health of sport in local communities and schools and whether more can be done to sustain and grow sporting opportunities for all.
Game On: Community and school sport inquiry has been launched amid warnings of a decline in the number of sporting facilities around the country and a fall in physical education provision in schools.
The inquiry will look at the funding available for sport in the community, how volunteers can be better supported and how to open up grassroots sport to under-represented groups.
It will also look at the role of schools in delivering sporting opportunities both in and outside of school hours and how children can be supported to develop a positive life-long relationship with physical activity.
The Committee will additionally investigate the ways in which national and local government, clubs, sports organisations and sports governing bodies can work together to improve the delivery of school and grassroots sport.
