The Ministry believes that involving members with advanced expertise serves as

an institutional enabler for achieving performance excellence. This step aligns with

the Ministry’s vision to develop the administrative structure of sports federations
and instate qualified professionals capable of transforming these entities into

pioneering institutions characterised by responsible decision-making, agility, and

innovation.

This initiative highlights the Ministry’s efforts to instil a robust governance culture

as the guiding framework for all institutional processes within the sports sector.

Moreover, the adoption of the electoral list system is considered a significant

organisational advancement, reinforcing the commitment of sports bodies to the

principles of integrity, transparency, specialisation, and administrative integration.
The Ministry views governance not merely as a regulatory tool, but as a

comprehensive approach that supports the development of stronger partnerships

with all sports institutions. It helps foster a collaborative working environment and

contributes to empowering these entities by enhancing their ability to identify

talent, increase the number of active sports participants, and improve
overall sports performance efficiency.

The Ministry emphasises that its support for sports federations goes beyond

financial or logistical assistance, extending to the development of effective

administrative models, ensuring comprehensive governance, and empowering the
board of directors by offering them institutional innovation tools.
