European Parliament adopts Declaration on Grassroots Sport

Data: 23/12/2010

ISCA thanks all the members of the European Parliament that supported the declaration


On December 16, 2010 a majority of 385 Members of the European Parliament adopted the Written declaration 0062/2010 on increased European Union support for grassroots sports. The declaration calls for 5 measures to be implemented by European Union institutions and/or EU member states.



ISCA has been greatly involved in promoting the adoption of the declaration, through direct contact to all members of the European Parliament, a series of speeches at the European Parliament and direct assistance to the MEP sponsoring the declaration.



ISCA President Mogens Kirkeby points out that ‘this is a strong political signal from the European Parliament. The support to the Written Declaration combined with the conclusions from the Sport Minister meeting on November 18, strongly underline, that grassroots sport should be the European Union’s priority within the sports field in the years to come.’
