Fort McMurray and Wood Buffalo Sport Strategic Plan

The Sport Strategic Plan provides a blueprint for Wood Buffalo to become a leading sport region in Canada. It was developed through input from members of local sports groups and organizations. It was adopted by council in 2016 to guide planning and decision making through 2026.

Mission

To engage and align the sport community, tourism industry, stakeholders, and users in fostering a strong sport delivery system that attracts new business and visitors and improves the quality of life for residents.

Short-term strategic goals

  • We take a coordinated, collaborative, and accountable approach to attracting and hosting events, as evidenced by the success of our partnerships, our seamless event process, and our consistent, transparent measurement.
  • We are hosting more major events that attract new business and visitors and inspire more residents to actively participate in the community.
  • We have a clearly defined approach to ensuring ongoing, inclusive consultation and collaboration with representatives of arts and culture, events and tourism, and other important sectors, recognizing the need for all to be aligned.

Long-term strategic goals

  • We offer a well-coordinated, participant-centred sport delivery system. Residents and athletes can understand and access the on-ramps to participating in sport, and a higher percentage of them are using the full range of our offering.
  • We are leveraging our existing and future investments in sport facilities and infrastructure to anticipate and exceed the needs and expectations of residents, visitors, business, and athletes, and to ensure sport and sport events are contributing to the growth of the Wood Buffalo region in alignment with municipal plans.
