Sport

Under the Erasmus+ Programme, the Sport sector supports the professional development of sport staff and strengthens the capacity of sport organisations, particularly at grassroots level.

Erasmus+ Sport focuses on:

• Improving skills and competences of sport staff
• Supporting organisational development
• Encouraging cooperation and knowledge exchange
• Strengthening grassroots sport across Europe

This action is not about elite competition or professional athletes. It is about people who work in sport.

• Public or private organisations active in sport
• Non-grassroots organisations, where participation benefits grassroots sport
