This distinction, which highlights the dynamism of local sports life, underscores the investment of all stakeholders who work daily to make sport accessible. Labeled since 2020, Marmande confirms its commitment to making sport an essential component of daily life.
Supported by the National Council of Active and Sporty Cities, under the patronage of the Ministry of Sports, this label rewards local authorities that commit to developing and making sports practice accessible, taking into account the sports policy pursued, the diversity of activities offered, the quality of facilities, and local initiatives.
Achieving these 3 laurels demonstrates the work undertaken by the City to encourage sports practice in all its forms and at all ages. Beyond the health benefits of sport, this distinction also highlights its essential role in education, inclusion, citizenship, and social cohesion.
On a regional scale, in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, only 22 out of the 85 labeled municipalities have obtained 3 laurels. This collective result rewards the investment of elected officials, municipal services, sports clubs and associations, coaches, volunteers, schools, and all partners.
Awarded for three years, this label encourages the City to continue its efforts to develop a diverse sports offering, promote access to physical activity for the greatest number, and support local initiatives. Marmande thus reaffirms its ambition to make sport a lever for quality of life, social connection, and attractiveness.
