National and international political priorities in the sports sector (2011)
Develop the sport at school, by providing physical education and swimming on Wednesday afternoon. School sport offered on Wednesday afternoon remains an important part of sports policy continued.
Promote grassroots sport by allowing young people to practice the largest possible number of sports.

Encourage competitive sport, by setting up structures for a time arrangements.
However, the typical sport activity, regard to the significant offer from civil sports associations, doesn’t reflect anymore the attractive side it was used to have. Also, a thought and an experience have been imagined for this school year.

Organisation of sport in the country (2011)
The sport is organized through the Department of Education, Youth and Sports under the supervision of the Department of the Interior, which provides the major options of sports policy in a "National Commission Sports ", composed of experts. This gives an opinion to the Government.

A full employment policy for the use of sports facilities is organized.
