About Us

The Sport and Tourism Policy Branch provides advice and information to the government with respect to the development and implementation of sport-related policies and manages the Province’s ongoing investments in sport development.

The objectives are:

  • to increase Manitobans’ participation in sport,
  • to strengthen the performance of Manitoba athletes in regional, national and international competition,
  • to build Manitoba’s profile in the national and international sport community, and
  • to maximize the benefits of hosting sports events in Manitoba.

The Sport and Tourism Policy Branch also provides support to the Manitoba Combative Sports Commission.
