Abstract (English):
Sports federations as non-profit organizations play an important role in the development of the public sector and the development of selected sports, being responsible for their popularization and development. They are a powerful potential and tool for solving problems in the field of physical culture and sports that are not solved by state and municipal sports institutions. Sports federations as actors are the most mobile in terms of communication with both the state and business. In the Russian practice of state support for sports, budgetary funds constitute the predominant part in the financial support of regional sports federations, which cannot but affect the final extent of their financing: with a limited budget, the more sports federations, the less each of them can receive. In this case, the chosen budget policy can either help in the development of sports or lead to decline. Therefore, the formation of clear and objective rules for obtaining a certain amount of financial support from the state is an important factor in fair competition for resources. This study proposes a model for the distribution of financial resources among sports federations. The model is built on objective, measurable and verifiable indicators that characterize the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of athletes, personnel potential and organizational abilities. All indicators are calculated in relation to each other, and the starting point for calculations is the athlete who is enrolled in the sports school. At the output, the model forms a balanced system, the relationships within which change when the quantitative and (or) qualitative characteristics of the indicators change, as well as a logically sound order of financing for each specific sport.
