About CEES
In addition to the training and support programs it offers, the CEES aims to facilitate dialogue and collaboration between the various actors in the world of sports at the local, regional and national levels thanks to a redesigned system of governance as well as a vision focused on education, excellence and innovation.
Thus, the CEES aims to establish St. Martin's sports in its Caribbean environment and beyond by becoming a reference in its sector: an inspiring model both for the talents trained there and for its operating mode.
Sport is a serious game
At the CEES, sport is much more than a game. Because if we recognize its obvious playful dimension, we are above all convinced that it is a powerful tool with multiple facets, capable of responding to many challenges.
A vector of education, creator of social ties, a bridge to integration, a lever for economic growth and tourism... The benefits of sport are numerous and go beyond the simple physical framework of those who practice it.
This is why we approach it at the CEES in all its incredible richness and its capacity to federate, move, transform and reveal the best of each person as well as of our territory.
Serving the public interest

Version in force since 04 March 2022
Amended by LOI n°2022-296 of 2 March 2022 - art. 7
"The development of sport for all and the support of high-level sportsmen and women and the French teams in international competitions are of general interest.
The practice of physical and sports activities contributes to the achievement of the sustainable development goals included in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted on 25 September 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly.
This practice is an integral part of education and culture. It is exercised in compliance with the principles of the Republic and contributes to social integration, intergenerational solidarity and learning about citizenship and democratic life.
It constitutes a necessary dimension of public policies whose aim is, in particular, equality of opportunity, the preservation and restoration of the health and moral and physical well-being of individuals and, more generally, the development of the individual and collective progress.
The law promotes equal access to physical and sports activities, without discrimination based on sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, actual or assumed membership in a nation or ethnic group, religion, language, social condition, political or philosophical opinions or any other status."
