Abstract: This paper presents the results of basic analysis in the research of public services. The work is focused on the organizations providing municipal sports facilities. It responds to the current trend of setting up these organizations. The first part of the paper summarizes theoretical approaches in the area of sports facilities and public services, and defines legislative framework of the problem. The authors further specify the alternatives of the current provision of sports facilities at municipal level. Analytical part presents the data on the forms of the organizations, their establishment, number and types. The research is based on municipal web data and data from the examined organizations. The sample included all municipalities with extended powers, with the exception of regional towns and the City of Prague (n=193). The results confirm the trend in the establishment of municipal-based organizations also in the area of public facilities. The question arises which of these organizations produce better services in relation to the theory and the legislative framework of the Czech Republic.
