A National Perspective - Scottish Rugby There is now a real opportunity to drive Rugby forward in Scotland at all levels. With a new structure and governance the future looks more optimistic than ever. The opportunity for all stakeholders to work together in a coordinated manner with joint responsibility is one that is very exciting. A new regional structure has been implemented across Scottish Rugby to position ourselves better to work in partnership with a whole range of existing and new stakeholders. This new regional structure will help to eradicate duplication, improve co-ordination, facilitate better communication, co-ordinate planning and maximise resources. The regions chosen by the SRU combine existing rugby structures with the existing and new development in Scottish sport so we can work better with national, regional and local agencies. The regions follow the six Area Institute of Sport boundaries with a further sub division of the large regions of the East and the West to make eight. The eight regions are Highlands & Islands, Grampian, Tayside & Fife, Edinburgh, Mid and West Lothian, East Lothian and the Borders, Central, Glasgow (North) & Glasgow (South) With the integrated and multi dependant nature of sports development a strong rugby community in Central will contribute to all of the goals; but the strategic goal with the most relevancy to 'Growing the Game' is an Integrated and Thriving Rugby Community. SportCentral will ensure that the structures are in place to achieve this goal. The national targets for this goal and how rugby development will be measured are as follows:
