About Us
Re-established in 2000 and incoporated as Sport Oakville in 2010, we provide a vital link between Oakville’s sport community and the Town of Oakville’s Recreation & Culture.
Sport Oakville and the sport community recognize that sport has a powerful and positive influence in the community that include the following benefits:
- Developing and maintaining healthy lifestyles – regular physical activity helps prevent child obesity and reduces health issues suffered by our aging population
- Increased social development within a community by encouraging the integration and the feeling of inclusion of minority groups and newcomers
- Increased economic development and renewal within a community through sport tourism, spending and the creation of jobs
- Increased awareness in environmental sustainability with regards to new “greener” standards in for sport and recreation facilities.
While advocating and promoting sport and the continued development of sport, Sport Oakville also encourages all citizens of Oakville to participate in and benefit from sport and recreational activities at the level of their choice.
