Welsh Sports Association

The Welsh Sports Association is the independent umbrella body which supports and represents the sport sector in Wales.
We understand the ‘sport sector’ to mean anyone involved in the business of sport and active recreation in Wales. As the collective voice for this sector in proactively advocating and influencing key decision makers, we also enable our members to become stronger, more successful and sustainable through providing a wide range of business support services. (Including the online bi-lingual DBS service - which is administered through the WSA's trading arm Vibrant Nation - to enable all organisations within the third sector to access the cost-effective solution).

The WSA members are at the core of our work, and as a representative organisation, we work to ensure that our support services are designed with their specific needs in mind, so that we can set the sector up for both sustainability and success.

Using evidence and insight to highlight the unique contribution that sport and active recreation makes to the physical, mental and economic well-being of society, we can showcase how sport and active recreation can provide a solution to a wide number of public policy issues.
