Top sport in BMI
Top-class sport funding in the Ministry of the Interior is structured as a dual funding system and combines sustainable vocational training with the opportunity to practice sport professionally. On the one hand, top athletes are offered sound professional training and, at the same time, social security outside of their sporting career, and on the other hand, they are granted funding for training, preparation times and competitions.
