PACES & Accredited Clubs

The Perth and Kinross Accredited Club Excellence Scheme (PACES), is a straightforward quality assurance system that has been designed to help sports clubs operate efficiently and effectively. It will help your club to take a systematic look at what it does, and decide exactly where improvements can be made. It is also a means of identifying and rewarding clubs that operate in a structured way.

We have three levels for PACES membership: Bronze, Silver & Gold. Each level supports a progression within club activity and structure.

Benefits of PACES

  • Support and advice from the Live Active Sport Development Team
  • Access to lets within Live Active Leisure and Perth and Kinross Council facilities (e.g. PACES is required for booking a hall / court)

  • Opportunity to work with Active Schools Co-ordinators to support school to club links
  • Promotion through our online media and campaigns such as the Perth and Kinross Sports Awards

The benefits and support your club will recieve will depend on what level of PACES your club has been accredited with; Bronze, Silver or Gold.
