Evalvation of the financial operations of womenˇs handball in the Republic of Croatia

Sport je iznimno važna djelatnost koja potiče zdravlje, pomaže raspoloženju i stvara čvrst um. U Hrvatskoj postoje brojni sportski klubovi. Klubovi su registrirani kao udruge ili sportska dionička društva koja promiču sport i zdravlje a njihova organizacija i financiranje strogo su regulirani nacionalnim i nadnacionalnim normama. Cilj istraživanja je utvrditi način organizacija i financiranja sporta te ocijeniti financijsku poziciju ženskih rukometnih klubova u Hrvatskoj. Rezultati analize pokazuju da je financijski položaj ženskih rukometni klubova slab sa nagomilanim obvezama i gubicima. Klubovi uglavnom ovise o lokalnim i državnim donacijama. Zanimljivo, rukometni klubovi ne angažiraju niti jednog registriranog volontera u izvođenju poslova.Sport is an extremely important activity that promotes health, helps mood and creates a solid mind. There are many sports clubs in Croatia, registered as associations or sports stock companies, which promote sports and health, and their organization and funding are strictly regulated by national and supranational norms. The aim of the research was to see how sports and handball clubs in the Republic of Croatia are organized and financed and to evaluate the situation. The results suggest that the condition of the clubs analyzed is poor, with large commitments and most of the years gone by. They depend on local and state donations, and there are few sponsorships and donations from citizens. In addition, handball clubs do not hire any registered volunteers to carry out the work
