Structure
ClubSport Lewis and Harris is governed by an Executive Committee, which is elected during the Annual General Meeting held in October.
As an association of local sports clubs and organisations, ClubSport Lewis and Harris collaborates with Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar and the Western Isles Health Board to promote and develop sport across Lewis and Harris.
The Executive Committee is composed of volunteers who represent a wide range of sporting interests in the area. These individuals, along with elected members and officers from Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar, Western Isles Health Board, and other organisations, play a key role in decision-making and the responsible distribution of available funds.
The committee meets five times a year in November, January, March, June, and August to award grants, support local sports clubs, and explore new funding opportunities.
