First portion of 2022 sport funding for Lithuanian sport announced as Ministry of Education and Culture announced  numbers of sports funding via central government.

Sport funding in Lithuania have multiple layers from both central and regional government bodies, therefore this is just the first portion of funding.

 

Interestingly enough, it was announced that all official funding for Judo were cut down to 0, due inadequate use of previous funding and arguments within Lithuanian Judo Federation. There were multiple articles surrounding disagreements within Judo community in Lithuania as multiple breakaway Judo federations started to operate in the country. Unfortunately this is only going to hurt the development of this sport even more...

 

Also no funding for Surfing, Skateboarding and inactive Luge, Skeleton and Bobsleigh federations. No funding for squash and floorball as national federations are not a part of Doping testing system. Wushu removed from funding list, might something to do with countries love for China... Loads of weird non-Olympic sports prioritised over Olympic federations.

 

Basketball loosing a lot of funding after failing to qualify for Tokyo, although further stages might increase the funding + all team sports will have additional fund distributed for team sport development (I know, funding system in Lithuania is very convoluted..)

 

Funding per federation - Stage 1 (more funding to be approved via different sources). All sums are in €:

  • Aquatics (Swimming, Artistic and Diving) = 927k
  • Athletics = 779k
  • Rowing = 719k
  • Canoeing = 547k
  • Basketball = 516k
  • Football = 372k
  • Gymnastics = 331k
  • Modern pentathlon = 303k
  • Cycling = 291k
  • Wrestling = 284k
  • Biathlon = 235k
  • Boxing = 225k
  • Air Sports = 223k (Non-Olympic)
  • Ice Hockey = 222k
  • Orienteering = 209k (Non-Olympic)
  • Kyokushin Karate = 204k (Non-Olympic) ... wtf...
  • Handball = 176k
  • Rugby = 164k
  • Field Hockey = 149k
  • Dance Sport (including Breaking) = 146k (Future Olympic)
  • Sailing = 124k
  • Bodybuilding = 116k (Non-Olympic)
  • Shooting = 100k
  • Weightlifting = 97k
  • Skiing (Cross-Country, Alpine, Freestyle, Snowboarding) = 93k
  • Curling = 89k
  • Motor sport = 88k (Non-Olympic)
  • Volleyball = 66k
  • Taekwondo = 65k
  • Baseball = 64k (Former Olympic)
  • Sport Fishing = 60k (Non-Olympic)
  • Draughts = 59k (Non-Olympic)
  • Figure skating = 56k
  • Water Polo = 55k
  • Bike motor sports = 51k (Non-Olympic)
  • Table Tennis = 50k
  • Bowling = 46k (Non-Olympic)
  • Tennis = 45k
  • Badminton = 40k
  • Chess = 37k (Non-Olympic)
  • Arm Wrestling = 37k (Non-Olympic)
  • Archery = 34k
  • Triathlon = 28k
  • Powerlifting = 26k (Non-Olympic)
  • Sambo = 25k (Non-Olympic)
  • Flying Disk = 22k (Non-Olympic)
  • Sport Climbing = 20k
  • Tug of War = 20k (Non-Olympic)
  • Water Bike Sports = 19k (Non-Olympic)
  • Speed Skating/Short Track = 19k
  • Composition Chess = 14k (Non-Olympic)
  • Kickboxing = 13k (Non-Olympic)
  • Softball = 13k (Former Olympic)
  • Pool = 12k (Non-Olympic)
  • Fencing = 11k
  • Equestrian = 10k
  • Correspondence Chess = 9k (Non-Olympic)
  • Muay Thai = 8k (Non-Olympic)
  • Karate = 7k (Former Olympic)
  • Water motorsports = 5k (Non-Olympic)
  • Water Skiing and Wakeboarding = 5k (Non-Olympic)
  • Golf = 5k
  • Billiard = 1k (Non-Olympic)

OMG that is hilarious. Air Sports, Orienteering, Bodybuilding, Draughts , composition chess,  bike water sports.. Haha

 

What will arm wrestling federation do with that money I wonder!

 

I didn't know fishing can be a sport and get more funding than tennis, badminton, archery, triathlon, golf, fencing etc

Football seems to be hitting a new low in the country. From this year the funding will be just 632k $ . Imagine 400 times the population of Lithuania and still not a very drastic difference in the football funds. Tennis also seems to be slashed heavily. The federation was quite upset but I'm happy with the reason given - lack of appreciable performance. Imagine a nation where Football is below Sailing and Equestrian and cannot even compare with weightlifting or even have a thought of comparison with badminton, athletics etc

Here's our 2022-23 funding for summer Olympic sports. This is for one year (I think it goes from April 2022 to March 2023)

 

Archery $250,000
Artistic Swimming $225,500
Athletics $4,535,000
Basketball (F) $1,150,000
Basketball (M) $800,000
Boxing $450,000
Canoe/Kayak $2,315,000
Cycling $3,494,000
Diving $2,725,000
Fencing $230,000
Field Hockey (M) $575,000
Golf $250,000
Gymnastics $1,175,000
Judo $1,300,000
Rowing $4,184,900
Rugby 7s (F) $1,050,000
Rugby 7s (M) $575,000
Sailing $550,000
Soccer (F) $2,589,100
Swimming $4,523,500
Taekwondo $57,000
Tennis $300,000
Triathlon $300,000
Volleyball - Beach $850,000
Volleyball (M) $1,000,000
Waterpolo (F) $925,000
Waterpolo (M) $325,000
Weightlifting $200,000
Wrestling $1,050,000

So no funding for badminton, 3x3 basketball, breaking, equestrian, handball, modern pentathlon, shooting, skateboarding, sport climbing, surfing and table tennis. For traditional team sports, funding is split between genders. There's no funding for men's football and women's field hockey and volleyball.

 

That's a lot of sports without funding. We even have medal chances in some of them. At the very least we should qualify athletes in the majority of the non-funded sports. Perhaps some will see something next year since Olympic qualification will be in full swing.

 

I've always been of the opinion that each sport should get some kind of base level funding. Like if they can give taekwondo $57k they can give the others something like 25k-50k a year. It would at least help pay for travel costs to Olympic qualifiers/World Championships.

Keep in mind this funding is on top of the funding the government provides.

The other day I heard a journalist say our entire sports budget is the same as the budget of brazilian swimming. :facepalm:

The Argentine government says that the total public budget for sports is 4 billion pesos (or US$ 25 million by the official exchange rate).

 

https://www.telam.com.ar/notas/202210/607435-secretaria-deportes-enard--presupuesto-becas.html

 

Of course this doesn't include other income by federations and clubs (like tickets, TV rights and sponsors), which I guess are minimal for most sports.

    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
