The Landessportbund Rheinland-Pfalz (LSB) is the umbrella organization for sport in Rhineland-Palatinate, with its headquarters in Mainz . The first general meeting of the LSB took place on March 19, 1966 in the Koblenz Rhein-Mosel-Halle , at which August Zeuner was officially elected as the first chairman of the LSB. Since 1950 the mayor of Oberwesel had provisionally led the LSB. His successor on March 12, 1977 was Eugen Müller (Ludwigshafen), who passed the management on to Rolf Weiler (Lahnstein) on April 14, 1984.

At this general meeting in the ' Eltzer Hof ' congress center in Mainz , the building contractor Egon Heberger from Schifferstadt took over the fate of the state sports association, but resigned on April 6, 2006 for personal reasons.
