Sažetak
Republic of Croatia recognizes the benefits of recreational sports programmes and they are valued as a public necessity at state level. Therefore, funds are granted from the State Budget of the Republic of Croatia each year for their administration. However, only 10 per cent of Croatian citizens actively participate in recreational sports programmes, which is below the European average of between 13 and 72 per cent of active participants, relative to the population. Considering that it is scientifically proven that recreation has a positive effect on one’s health, quality of life and workforce productivity, along with the fact that regular exercise prevents long-term sick leave, mental symptoms and poor health in working population, the aim of this article Is to indicate the need for more funds for recreational sports programmes from the State Budget and active participation of more Croatian citizens in the above-mentioned programmes.
