RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Hobza, VladimĂ­r A1 Cikl, Radek T1 Subsidization policy in sports and physical training in the Czech Republic JF Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Gymnica YR 2007 VO 37 IS 3 SP 15 OP 20 UL https://gymnica.upol.cz/artkey/gym-200703-0002.php AB Considering the positive externalities and classical meaning of the term physical culture, sports belong among the spheres of life traditionally supported in the Czech Republic. Conceptual issues of the differentiated support of sports and physical training at various state administrative and municipal government levels are, at the present time, connected with a change in the state's allocation policy, i. e. from a centralized to a decentralized one. The activities of these important institutions, represented by the state, regional authorities and municipalities, should be coordinated in the area of subsidization policy in order to avoid social cost ineffectiveness and, in the final stage, negative impacts on sports and physical training.
