Sports Promotion Act

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ordinance on State Sports Supervision and Public Sports Maintenance of June 20, 1940 (German Reich)

Sports Funding Acts are laws that place funding in the respective federal state on a continuous basis. Such a law, however, does not guarantee that the respective federal state actually continuously promotes sport . The expansion of sports facilities has decreased continuously since 2005, so that there is a considerable need for renovation. One of the consequences is that the demand for commercial sports offers has increased significantly. While the federal government is responsible for top-class sport, the states for school sport and funding at the state level, the municipalities (with subsidies from the states) are responsible for the sports facilities. Even if the federal states have always anchored the promotion of sport as a state goal in the state constitution, sport often has a very subordinate priority as a voluntary service .
