East Devon District Council is inviting all Sidmouth, Sidbury and Sidford residents, voluntary and community groups to send their ideas to Sidmouth Town Council on how £150,000 can be spent on sport provision in the area.

All the funds available have been accumulated by East Devon District Council from recent housing developments in the parish of Sidmouth.

Several different sports projects all over the town could benefit from the money.

The ideas can include all sorts of outdoor sports proposals from BMX tracks, skate parks, basketball courts or an outdoor gym to a cricket or football pitch. It could also be for new facilities or to improve existing facilities such as pitch resurfacing.

Sidmouth Town Council is urging individuals as well as voluntary and community groups and other organisations, especially sports and recreation groups, to submit proposals for projects they would like to undertake.

The money could be spent on pitches, courts, lawns, greens, and tracks and training areas. Once installed, the recreation facilities or equipment must be open and accessible to the whole community.

Funding cannot be spent on buildings, indoor facilities, professional sports grounds or golf courses.

All proposals must be submitted to Sidmouth Town Council by Friday 28 June 2013.
