The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games will offer Scotland a wonderful opportunity to create a lasting legacy. In the run up to the games, Scotland offers 30 facilities in the London 2012 Pre Games Training Camp Guide and at games time, Hampden Park will host some of the matches to be held in the football tournament. Scotland will also benefit from the increased funding for Olympic and Paralympic athletes.
Sport is a devolved matter for which responsibility lies with the Scottish Government. The Scottish Government have indicated that they will publish their Games Legacy Plan in relation to both the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games and the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth games later this summer and this will include their plans for the sporting legacy in Scotland.
