The Liechtenstein Olympic Sports Federation (Liechtensteinischer
Olympischer Sportsverband, LOSV ), as the umbrella organization of the associations
and clubs, is the direct contact point for all questions relating to sports. The LOSV supports and advises
the organizations in their activities and developments on behalf of sports in Liechtenstein, as long
as they correspond to the principles of sports ethics (environment, fairness, doping, discrimination,
etc.). The Liechtenstein Olympic Sports Federation is responsible for the following areas
of sports (in alphabetical order): - Education
- Elite
sports
- Olympic affairs
- Popular
sports
- Services
In
all of its activities, the LOSV complies with the internationally applicable agreements concerning doping
and fairness. It takes the demographic circumstances of the country into account and protects the environment
and nature. Representing the interests of the associations and clubs, it continually strives for constructive
cooperation with the Sports Commission. Its Sports Bureau is an integral part of these efforts. The
LOSV secures the financial resources for special tasks such as sending delegations to the Olympics or
the elite sports program, without affecting the financial policies of the associations and clubs. It
also acts as a contact point for anyone interested in sports. In addition, it aims to bring sports closer
to all segments of the country's population. |
