Abstract
Financing of the professional sport from public resources in Republic of Croatia since 1. 7. 2013. has to be in accordance with regulations of State aids in European Union by which is forbidden to give State aids by whose rules about market competition are spoiled in Head VII. Chapter 1. UFEU (Rules on Competition).
New rules about compensations for ex top athletes are finally authorized in Croatia in 2013. according to model of Serbian sport law. However it is essential to emphasize that athletes with a disability who won medals at world championships for athletes with a disability don’t have rights for compensations. This discriminatory regulation is against international and Croatian law. Sport laws in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro give same rights to athletes with a disability and to athletes without disability.
