Official note

Class note from the source layer

This class includes the activities of sports clubs, which, whether professional, semi-professional or amateur clubs, give their members the opportunity to engage in sporting activities. Sports clubs are typically non-profit entities, but inclusion in the sports sector is legitimised by the prevailing purpose of the activity carried out (promotion of sports practice). The activities of education, training, sale of advertising space, provision of clubhouse services, are, in this context, ancillary activities, which may have a prevailing weight at an economic level, but which are instrumental with respect to the prevailing purpose of the activity carried out and for its perpetuation. This class excludes: - sports instruction by individual teachers, trainers, see 8551 - operation of sports facilities, see 9311 - activities of individual own-account sportsmen and athletes, referees, judges, timekeepers etc., see 9319 - activities of individual own-account participants of e-sports, see 9319 - activities of sports federations, see 9499
