Sport has always been a key determinant of citizens' quality of life, rather in an era of
urbanization, intense and suffocating daily life, and with sedentary life becoming
increasingly dominant. In order to reverse the situation, the role of each municipal
authority is essential, in order to provide the ability for physical exercise of its
citizens.
The main tool in this endeavor is mass sport programs, the implementation of which is
the main provision of large-scale sports services, with the aim of improving the
quality of life and health, preventing behaviors that may lead to social problems, as
well as, to improve socialization and interpersonal relationships, especially for people
belonging to vulnerable social groups.
Given that “Sports for All” programs, especially in times of financial crisis, are for
many people the only opportunity for sports and leisure, it is important and extremely
critical that citizens evaluate them so that Municipalities can make the best use of
them, although the very scarce financial resources, in order to provide high quality
sport programs
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the importance of the "Sport for All"
program to the citizens of the Municipalities, as well as the changes that are likely to
bring about their daily lives, as well as, the points that need improvement. The
purpose of the quantitative research carried out, using a structured questionnaire as a
research tool in the municipality of Abelokipi-Menemeni, was through its results to
contribute to the improvement of the programs and thus the lifestyle of the citizens.
The data collected from the sample of 158 participants were statistically analyzed by
SPSS, using descriptive statistics methods, while t-test and chi square were used in
order to investigate the correlations. The analysis of the results showed that the
majority of the athletes were women, their age ranged from 20 to 70 years and their
educational level was of higher level.
Their view of the program was positive, especially for the staff involved in the project
which was characterized as adequate, willing to help, knowledgeable and polite. The
participants were not satisfied with the facilities, which at least complied with the
hygiene rules. In addition, they want a variety of programs, external actions, and
actions on the water. The "Sport for All" program in the municipality of Ampelokipi and Menemeni
provides important services, not only in the training of the citizens, but also in
improving their mental and physical health. Although the municipality should invest
in upgrading services year by year, especially facilities and equipment. This can be
done financially but even through various funding programs.
