Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin gave instructions on the digitalization of sports
One of the directions of digitalization of the branch of physical culture and sports in Russia is the formation of specialized databases that provide information, including for citizens. President RFVladimir Putin announced this on October 17, 2024.
According to him, information services will help Russians in choosing sports institutions and coaches. Through such platforms, up-to-date information about planned sports events will be provided. At the same time, the inclusion in the unified federal database of all sports organizations will allow making balanced, objective decisions on the construction and modernization of the relevant infrastructure.
 | These bases are important both for sports of the highest achievements, professional athletes, and for authorities as assistance in choosing organizations to participate in all-Russian and local programs, to provide them with financial and administrative support, the head of state said. |  |
Putin emphasizes that in order to develop physical culture and sports in Russia, it is necessary to build a clear interaction between state and public organizations, companies, as well as individual entrepreneurs. For this, modern information systems and digital solutions will be introduced. In particular, on the basis of digital platforms, it is planned to assess the indicator of citizens' satisfaction with the conditions for physical education and sports.
Earlier, Putin instructed to continue the development of the state information system "Physical Culture and Sports." We are talking about the provision of services for the registration of an athlete's electronic passport. In addition, it is planned to form and maintain lists of all sports facilities, physical culture and sports organizations, individual entrepreneurs engaged in coaching and coaching and teaching activities.[1]
Mishustin approved the strategy of digital transformation of physical education and sports until 2030
Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed a decree approving the strategic direction in the field of digital transformation of physical education and sports until 2030. The press service of the Cabinet of Ministers announced this on February 8, 2024. Within the framework of the strategic direction, several projects are expected to be implemented, including:
- by 2028, all applications for admission of children to sports schools and other sports training organizations will be accepted electronically through the State Public services portal.
- by 2027, electronic passports of athletes will be introduced. This will increase the selection of talented youth and increase the effectiveness of sports training, according to the authors of the strategy;
- due to digital technologies, the process of assigning sports titles and categories will be accelerated. Its full translation into "digital" is planned by 2030.
- The federal state information system "Physical Culture and Sports" will be integrated with regional information digital platforms, where by February 2024 there are already information resources of specific organizations. By 2030, all of them will be included in a single digital environment.
- in 2024, citizens will have the opportunity to sign up for the delivery of TRP ["ready for work and defense" - the normative basis for physical education of the country's population, aimed at the development of mass sports] on the State Public services portal.
As noted in the Government of the Russian Federation, strategic directions are synchronized with state programs and national projects. They are approved for the period up to 2030. To keep the documents relevant, once a year it is allowed to make changes to them, the Cabinet said in a statement.
It also noted that the strategic directions for the digital transformation of key sectors of the economy and social sphere were developed by the government on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Dmitry Svishchev, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Physical Culture and Sports, said that the electronic passports that athletes will have by 2027 will reflect all their parameters, the history of the athlete, his features, his titles, coaches. The first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs and the Olympic champion Svetlana Zhurova added that the passport is likely to indicate all the movements of athletes, medical indicators, transitions from one sports school to another.
| | It will be much easier to control all these processes. I think there may be an association with the My Sport program, which is already working. There, coaches fill out electronic diaries, where you can see what loads children perform in Vladivostok, and which ones - in Moscow, for example. Coaches can thus share experiences. The passport will also contain a medical card to avoid fakes and then there were no incident situations, tests of the child's physical indicators and permission to enter the competition. Roughly speaking, there will be not only the results of the competition, but also additional information that the coaches see. Then they take it on a pencil and watch how the child will develop, "she said. | |
Honored Coach of the Russian Federation, member of the initiative of the group for the nomination of Russian President Vladimir Putin Olga Pavlova noted that the digital transformation approved by the government will affect not only the field of professional, but also amateur sports and physical education. According to her, the use of digital technologies and the translation of reporting documentation into digital will speed up the process of assigning sports ranks and titles, as well as help to better select talented youth and increase the effectiveness of sports training.
The Ministry of Sports emphasizes that digital transformation in the field of physical culture and sports is an important step in the development of this industry. New technologies not only make life easier for athletes and coaches, but also significantly improve the quality of preparation and conduct of sports events.[2]

Mishustin allocated 3.26 billion rubles for the construction of "smart" sports grounds in Russia
In June 2023, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed an order on the distribution of subsidies to the budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation for co-financing the purchase and installation of equipment for the creation of "smart" sports grounds for 2023 and 2024-2025.
The total amount of subsidies for 2023 is 3.28 billion rubles, which approximately corresponds to the expenses of a year ago. For 2024, 3.06 billion rubles are allocated, for 2025 - 4 billion rubles.
By "smart" sports ground, cambin means "a modern, well-equipped place for sports with access to the Internet, so that each visitor can build an individual training session and monitor the correct performance of exercises." The government believes that "such an infrastructure" will persuade citizens to a healthy lifestyle.
As noted by the publication D-Russia, initially Tatarstan, Perm Territory, Belgorod and Rostov regions were not included in the program for subsidizing smart sports grounds, but the government nevertheless contributed them, allocating them 78 million rubles for 2023. The Arkhangelsk region and the Chechen Republic increased subsidies by 78 million, now for each of the two regions the amount is 156 million rubles. Subsidies for the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, Amur and Sakhalin regions, St. Petersburg and the Jewish Autonomous Region have been canceled.
The work is carried out within the framework of the new federal project "Business Sprint," which is part of the state program "Development of physical culture and sports." It was developed as part of one of 42 strategic initiatives for the socio-economic development of Russia until 2030. The project provides for the creation of the necessary sports infrastructure within walking distance in cities and villages.[3]

2022:10 largest SportTech companies in Russia
In March 2023, Smart Ranking analysts published a study of the Russian digital technology market for sports. The revenue of the 10 largest developers of such solutions in 2022 amounted to 543.92 million rubles, down 3.45% compared to a year ago (563.33 million rubles).
As noted in the study, in comparison with the post-pandemic [we are talking about the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic] in 2021, when there was a high demand for cefro products at the junction of sports and technologies, and foreign partners and customers were open to cooperation, according to the results of 2022, the dynamics of the top 10 companies slowed down. During 2021, an increase of 16% was noted, but then with the start of a special military operation (SVO) of the Russian Federation in Ukraine in the first half of 2022 - a drop of 28%. However, in the second half of the year, the industry began to recover - the total revenue of the top 10 increased by about 49.7% compared to the first half of the year and returned to the level of July-December 2021.
The leader of the Russian SportTech market in 2022 was the wellbeing company Fitmost. The revenue from its product - a single season ticket for sports and self-care - according to IP Fund experts in 2022 amounted to more than 149 million rubles. Fitmost lost some loyal audiences and some corporate clients in 2022.
In second place in terms of revenue and in first place in terms of growth for the year is also the wellbeing service - the platform of the Russian champion in fitness bikini Ekaterina Usmanova GymTeam, aimed not at professional athletes, but at newcomers. GymTeam develops an assistant system for fitness trainers based on fitness data analysis and CV algorithms: it analyzes the actions and source data of the client, and then displays tips on the trainer's screen that will allow you to adjust the workout live.
Sportuniver The company, an educational resource for training athletes, showed the greatest growth dynamics between half-year periods in 2022 in terms of the low base effect: its six-month dynamics in 2022 in terms of the low base effect amounted to 122.61%. According to the founder and CEO of the company Yaroslav Savin, in 2022 Sportuniver experienced a significant decrease in purchasing power. Therefore, the company revised its product line and entered the markets of friendly countries to strengthen its position.
| | "The niche in which we are represented - sports innovative education - is only now beginning to receive attention. We brought the best world practices and see that in Russia there is a huge interest in the development of the younger generation of experts. Unfortunately, the positions of old methods and approaches to training are still strong, "Savin said. | |
Experts call the volume of the Russian SportTech market "negligible": according to the Russian Sporttech project in 2021, the level of maturity of the sphere in the country was in 4th place out of 10 possible, where 1 step is being in the bud, and 10 is a position on a par with the leading countries. The already immature state of the industry was undermined with the beginning of the SVO: in 2022, the Russian market was under sanctions, some IT companies were released.
The researchers draw attention to the fact that, despite attempts by the state to make the digital transformation of sports a national task until 2030, the same fitness services market, closely related to SportTech, according to BusinesStat estimates, sank by 13% in 2022, and decreased by almost a third compared to 2019. The reasons for the fall are a decrease in the solvency of the population and the loss of corporate clients from foreign companies, which were one of the main drivers of the market.

FIFA introduced a software and hardware complex for determining offsides in football
On November 29, 2021, it became known that FIFA is starting to use technology that determines the offside position in football. The system will be used at the 2021 Arab Championship, which started on November 30 in Qatar, where the World Cup will be held in 2022. Read more here.
Installation of sensors to monitor the load of sports facilities in Moscow
At the end of September 2021, it became known that sensors would be installed at Moscow sports facilities to control their workload. Thanks to such a project, the authorities want to better navigate the design of infrastructure.
As Kommersant writes with reference to the Leaders of Digital Transformation 2021 program, the Moscow mayor's office has included in it a competition for creating a digital map of the workload of sports grounds, which will be updated in real time.
One of the contenders for the implementation of this project is Emiia, which is developing technology that allows using machine vision to assess the workload of sports grounds and stadiums. The co-founder of the startup Vladimir Starostin told the newspaper about this.
According to him, Emiia proposed to install motion and heat sensors at all stadiums and sports grounds in the city, information from which will enter the information system, and it will visualize data in the form of maps, graphs and tables. Starostin estimated equipping one site with sensors at $100. Such a technology plan is many times cheaper than systems with video cameras and contact sensors that require significant operating costs, he added.
Meanwhile, experts interviewed by the publication believe that the costs of implementing such a project will be incomparable with the interest of Muscovites in sports.
| | Perhaps it is worth just making a reservation of the sites, which will allow you to regulate their workload and plan it, - believes Alexey Sidorin, director for promoting the solutions of CROC. According to the executive director of ArtezioPavel Adylin, if we are talking about a global system for assessing the workload of sports facilities for a large city, then its cost can be tens of millions of dollars.[4] | |
Ranking of the 15 most promising technologies in sports
On July 8, the Institute for Statistical Research and Knowledge Economics of the Higher School of Economics presented a rating of the most promising information technologies in sports.
