Renovate sports facilities and ease the load on clubs
The Greens want to renovate sports facilities and swimming pools, cut red tape in sports funding and help clubs with energy costs and renovations. Elite and youth sports are also to get more support, and sports are to be inclusive and free of discrimination.
The Greens want to repair sports halls and swimming pools. Sports clubs should have less paperwork. They should get help with energy costs. Everyone should have the same chance to do sports.
Renovations are to prioritize ecological sustainability and inclusion; municipalities and clubs are to get help with climate protection and adaptation. Clubs are to be supported in compensating volunteer coaches, the volunteer allowance is to rise, and the state sports federation and its district federations are to be adequately resourced. Plans include more freely accessible exercise spaces, opening school sports facilities and a statewide study on the health effects of forced doping in East Germany. In elite sports, training camps are to be funded, training bases kept and university-level coach training brought back to central Germany. Clubs offering e-sports are to be supported, combined with protecting children and young people from abuse and extremist influence.
