A Nation of Champions

Be the best we can be

We have a rich sporting history. We will build emphatically on the foundations of our success to be the best we can be at the highest levels.

The last Olympic and Paralympic Games were Wales' most successful Olympics in 100 years, with five medals won and almost a quarter of the gold medals won by Great Britain's Paralympians secured by Welsh athletes.

We now have a significant number of sportsmen and women who are truly world class and known across the world for their sporting achievements: Baroness Tanni Grey Thompson, David Roberts and Nicole Cooke to name but a few.

Investing in the future

Following hard on their heels is an emerging generation of talent which is making its mark at junior and youth levels, and which we will, through dedicated support and services, provide with every chance to be the next world beaters.

We want to invest in our future talent, and maximise the feel-good factor the Commonwealth Games, Olympic and Paralympic Games will bring to Wales. It's about investing in a lasting legacy.
