About CEES
Alongside the training and support programs it offers, the CEES aims to facilitate dialogue and collaboration between the various players in the sporting world at local, regional and national level, thanks to a rethought system of governance and a vision focused on education, excellence and innovation.
The CEES is structured around 4 areas: resources and institutional support, performance pathways, training and employment, and communication and events.
The CEES aims to establish St. Martin's sport on a long-term basis in the Caribbean and beyond, by becoming a benchmark in its sector: an inspiring model in terms of both the talent it trains and the way it operates.

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.


Step up your game
Through the Centre d'Excellence et d'Éducation par le Sport, we offer young enthusiasts the opportunity to develop their potential to reach a professional level, whether in terms of sports practice or coaching.
"Step up your game" therefore resonates for us like a mantra, an invitation to give the best of oneself and to surpass oneself. After all, potential without motivation and discipline is talent without potential.
In terms of sporting activities, the following disciplines will be given pride of place during the first years of operation of the local sports centers: athletics, basketball, soccer, cycling, gymnastics, tennis and sailing.
Serving the public interest
Code du sport - Article L100-1
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."
