The results of a comprehensive survey of the websites of 56 sports organizations at national and European level were presented, aiming to determine the extent to which the sports structures guarantee the transparency of the decisions taken and the financial operations they are already implementing in the final stages. Full details of the survey data are available at www.eusport.org/GoodGovernance (in English).
