Sport Scotland has invited councils, educational institutions and other interested parties to bid to host the country’s first National Performance Centre for Sport.
A steering group, led by Scottish Football Association chief executive Stewart Regan, has decided on the bid criteria and timetable, which will receive up to £25m of government support, and will be completed by 2016.
Stewart Harris, chief executive of Sport Scotland, said it is a very exciting time for sport in Scotland and the substantial investment in the centre would help the country develop a world-class sporting system at every level.
“This new multi-sport centre will complement the tremendous facilities we already have and those that are being built in Scotland and help our high performance athletes harness their skills and continue delivering on the world stage.”
Global luxury hospitality brand, Six Senses, has partnered with longevity healthcare provider,
HUM2N, to launch a clinic at Six Senses London, at The Whiteley.
Premium London health club, KX Chelsea, will imminently unveil its most significant
redevelopment since its launch in 2002 to create an integrated wellness model combining
training, recovery and relaxation.
Researchers in the US have identified an antibody which could greatly reduce the loss of lean
muscle mass in people who are taking weight-loss medications.
One of the biggest mistakes the fitness industry still makes is advertising almost
exclusively to people who already look and live like gym members. [more...]
Elevate is set to celebrate its 10th anniversary in style this June, with organisers
confirming the event’s largest-ever drinks reception as registrations continue to run more
than 10% ahead of last year. [more...]
