In 1989 a Commission of inquiry into the organization of sport in Zimbabwe was appointed by His Excellency President Robert Mugabe to look at how sport was being managed then, make recommendations on how best it was to be improved. It was through the observations and recommendations of the Commission of Inquiry that the Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC) was created by an Act of Parliament, the SRC Act Chapter 25:15 of 1991 revised in 1996.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]<div id=\"ultimate-heading-26169fe14273466d\" class=\"uvc-heading ult-adjust-bottom-margin ultimate-heading-26169fe14273466d uvc-9085  uvc-heading-default-font-sizes\" data-hspacer=\"line_with_icon\" data-hline_width=\"300\" data-hicon_type=\"selector\" data-hborder_style=\"solid\" data-hborder_height=\"3\" data-hborder_color=\"#006400\" data-icon_width=\"40\" data-hfixer=\"10\"  data-halign=\"center\" style=\"text-align:center\"><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-26169fe14273466d h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#000000;\">OUR MANDATE<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer line_with_icon\" style=\"topheight:40px;\"><div class=\"ult-just-icon-wrapper  \"><div class=\"align-icon\" style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<div class=\"aio-icon none \"  style=\"color:#006400;font-size:40px;display:inline-block;\">\n\t<i class=\"fas fa-table-tennis\"><\/i>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row row\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Sports and Recreation Commission succeeded the Sports Council in 1991 and its is mandate is to:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=&#8221;modern&#8221;
