Sport Vlaanderen is theFlemishsports agency. WithinBelgium, it is the Flemish counterpart of French-speakingADEPS. Both agencies were founded in 1969 to succeed the state-founded national INEPS/NILOS.

Until 2016 Sport Vlaanderen was calledBloso, short forBestuur voor Lichamelijke Opvoeding, Sport en Openluchtleven. The new name was assumed after a merger with the smallerdepartement Sport, another sports administration of the Flemish government. The new agency thereby acquired more responsibilities and greater authority over sport inFlanders.

Sport Vlaanderen has several responsibilities:

• support topsport inFlanders,
• divide government support funds over the organized sports actors inFlanders,
• operate the 13 sports centres of Sport Vlaanderen,
• organize training and courses for sports trainers,
• organizesports camps and
