How do you turn a national sports vision into local reality? For the Luxembourg Olympic and Sports Committee (COSL), one key answer is the structural transformation “IMPULS II”—targeting sport federations and clubs. Guided by this objective, COSL has commissioned TWIN as its strategic partner to engineer the implementation.
COSL is recognised as the central body of Luxembourg sport by the public authorities, as well as the National Olympic Committee (NOC) by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), bringing together all sports or sports-related federations, both Olympic and non-Olympic. Thus, COSL represents 61 federations with more than 125,000 members.
Professionalizing national sport structures at scale
Rooted in COSL’s 2025 sport framework Concept Intégré 2.0, the two-year IMPULS II initiative is dedicated to empowering the country’s federation and club structures. Its guiding principle—“Strong federations, successful clubs”—positions Luxembourg’s sports governing bodies as professional service providers and key drivers of development for their members.
Through a participatory design, IMPULS II is building a methodology that professionalizes the national sports movement from both the top-down and bottom-up simultaneously. Building on the momentum of this week’s kickoff in the Maison des Sports, TWIN’s strategic role is to advise on the organizational and communication frameworks needed to bolster the capacities of federations—the vital link supporting over 1,500 clubs nationwide.
“The kickoff sparked tremendous energy for a future-oriented collaboration. We greatly value TWIN’s strategic consulting as we build resilient sporting structures in Luxembourg. Alongside governing bodies and clubs, we are entering a new dimension of cooperation. IMPULS II is thus more than a project; it is a shared journey guided by attitude, trust, and genuine participation.”

The COSL mandate reaffirms TWIN’s international reputation as an expert institution for systemic development in sport, focused on translating complex visions into operational success. By aligning high-level strategy with local needs, the partnership aims to ensure that Luxembourg’s sporting landscape is fundamentally equipped for long-term growth.
“IMPULS II is about the connection between federations and the clubs on the ground. We recognize that many clubs struggle to find the resources they need to develop, making the federation’s support more important than ever. At TWIN, we are honoured to partner with COSL to shape this strategic blueprint, driving new levels of excellence and strengthening the lasting impact of Luxembourgish sport.”
