Sports in Norway have a vision to create joy in sports for everyone. To ensure joy in sports forever, we take independent responsibility for climate, nature, and the environment.
Team Green originates from the Norwegian Sports Federation's sustainability strategy (Norwegian only). The knowledge base developed through this strategic work revealed that Norwegian sports are motivated to operate more sustainably, but need more competence and tools to do so.
Through Team Green, we share inspiration and knowledge. We make it easier to apply for funding by providing better guidance. We work to secure stronger financing for necessary initiatives that will renew sports at all levels — whether as an athlete, club, team, region, federation, or Olympiatoppen.
How to Join Team Green?
In our work to create new green opportunities, we are all on the same team — whether you’re an athlete or a volunteer, a team player or an individualist, an employee or a partner, a national team athlete or a beginner, indoors or outdoors, young or old, and so on.
Everyone who contributes to strengthening environmental efforts in sports is a part of Team Green. There are many ways to contribute — for example, by taking initiative, building competence, setting goals, running projects, sharing experiences, motivating others, creating new solutions, or contributing financially or politically.
The more people we have on the team, the more we can achieve together.
