Sport Advisory Committee (SAC)

The SAC will be made up of the following individuals:

  • Amateur sport coordinator; Culture, Heritage, Recreation and Sport Division

  • Sport P.E.I. representative

  • Sport P.E.I. executive director

  • Executive member of a provincial sport governing body selected by the amateur sport coordinator; Culture, Heritage, Recreation and Sport Division

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SPORT ADVISORY COMMITTEE

  • To determine if sport governing bodies, based on criteria set out, are Provincial or regional in nature.

  • To monitor, on a random or ad hoc basis, the criteria for the status of the organization (provincial or regional).

PROBATIONARY SUPPORT

All new sport governing bodies shall automatically be placed in the probationary category. In this way, a new member will be introduced to, and assisted in understanding, all sport programs and services.

Sport governing bodies, which are provincial or regional associations, may be placed on probation by recommendation of the Sport Advisory Committee (SAC). This process may result in one of the following:

  • probationary membership may be converted to provincial or regional membership;

  • probationary membership may be continued upon the terms set down by SAC; or

  • status may be terminated.

In the case of new members, a review may not take place before the end of a one-year probationary period.

In the case of provincial or regional members placed on probation, a review may take place at any time.
