Professional sports associations: Staying true to their non-profit nature<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

Sports associations with professional sections are undergoing minor changes: While their non-profit nature offers them a few, non-negligible advantages, their economic activity clashes with their status. We have identified a few sensible ways out of this conundrum, which we would like to share with you.\u00a0<\/b><\/span> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this context, associations leading one or more professional sections are prevented from pursuing any mainly economic or profit-oriented endeavour. In the worst-case scenario, a Tax Office inspection may revoke the non-profit status of the association, which may mean its end as an organisation. This undesirable situation may be triggered by ignorance of the complex NON-PROFIT LAW<\/a>, wrong advice in the formulation of the statutes, and errors in the formation of assets or reserves, or when divesting sections. Fortunately, you can avoid such pitfalls by relying on our experience and knowledge of this intricate legal area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Through our advice, you can take the necessary measures to harmonise association and non-profit law with the commercial activity. Needless to say, we primarily seek to preserve your non-profit condition.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The provisions of the non-profit-making law are particularly relevant for tax purposes, specifically regarding the recognition of associations as non-profits by the Tax Office. Moreover, association statutes must also meet the special requirements of sporting federations, such as those of the DFB by German professional clubs. These different requirements can be met, for instance, by spinning off professional sports sections into GmbHs (German limited liability company). Despite professionally operated sports and income from the game arising from transfers or sponsors, our structural advice helps retain the non-profit nature of the parent club or association. We also ensure that association boards are exposed to a minimum liability risk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
