Sažetak
The aim of this paper was to research into whether the Croatian Olympic Committee applied the priority funding approach from 2001 to 2016 in budget allocation to different sports (i.e. national sport associations/federations). Additionally, the aim was to identify the applied approach efficiency by using the adjusted system resource model. The study encompassed athletes from 33 sports (24 individual and 9 team sports) of the Summer Olympic Games programme whose sporting activities and participation at competitions were funded by the Croatian Olympic Committee. The results showed that the Croatian Olympic Committee did apply the priority funding approach and that the resources were mostly directed – with few exceptions – towards the eight most successful sports. The highest efficiency was determined for individual sports that have multiple disciplines in which consequently more medals could be won. Lower efficiency levels were found for team sports.
