The Trust is administered by three trustees, one nominated by North Berwick Community Council and two of the North Berwick Councillors.
The objectives of the Trust are to provide, extend or maintain or otherwise to benefit such sporting facility or facilities, in the town of North Berwick as the Trustees in their absolute and unfettered discretion think fit, to promote or otherwise to benefit sport in and around the town of North Berwick, to participate in or contribute to any new capital development in connection with sport in or around the town of North Berwick which may be provided or funded in whole or in part by central or local government or any other body.
