He highlighted the six major focus areas of the Strategic Plan of the Department of Sport and Recreation namely; (1) accelerating transformation; (2) rekindling and revitalization of schools sport; (3) remodelling the institutional architecture of the department; (4) fostering mass participation; (5) reinvigorating the recreation cohort; and (6) mobilizing sufficient funds and funding for optimal programme execution. The strategic plan was divided into Annual Plan and the activities aimed at realising the objectives of the 2012/2016 strategic plan. On an annual basis the plan would position itself to integrate the National Sport and Recreation Plan (NSRP) 2030 as was adopted by the National Sport and Recreation Indaba (NSRI) in November 2011.
