Summary

The purpose of this bill is to promote amateur sports in New York on an organized and statewide basis. Amateur sports, whether through schools, clubs, leagues or otherwise, are an important economic, health and recreational asset. Organized competitions attract hundreds of competitors, often from across the country and indeed the world. As such, they are a valuable asset to the tourism industry and the state's economy. For most people, whether through school sports, teams or leagues, or individual participation, amateur athletics are the primary source for exercise and recreation. This bill will help promote amateur athletics by creating a council dedicated to promoting and publicizing the varied amateur athletic pursuits available now, as well as helping to provide new amateur athletic opportunities. The council can work with participants, schools, clubs, organizations and companies that provide venues for events, lodging, travel and transportation companies and local tourism organizations to bring these groups together. The council will help to make amateur athletics even more successful in New York State.
