Objective. To analyze the history of formation and organizational and methodological bases of French athletes preparation in the Olympic sport. Methods. Analysis and generalization of special literature, documentary sources and materials of the Internet; system analysis; historical and logical method; comparative method. Results. Elite sport reforming in France, which began in the 1960s, is directly related to the intensifi cation of state regulation. Today, the Olympic preparation system is almost entirely in the fi eld of public administration. To promote the success of national teams in the international arena, an independent and infl uential group of highly qualifi ed experts has been formed. The composition of the expert group is coordinated with all state and public organizations involved in the preparation of athletes. It deals with specifi c and rather narrow issues of organizational, personnel, material, technical, scientifi c, medical, social, fi nancial support of French athletes' preparation for the Olympic Games. Conclusions. France belongs to countries where autonomous management of the Olympic preparation is carried out. Determining, ensuring and controlling the implementation of the strategy of preparing athletes for major international competitions is the responsibility of the National Committee of Elite Sport, which holds administrative levers of management and consolidated fi nancial resources. This approach makes it possible to eff ectively coordinate and subordinate the approved strategies of the activities of numerous state and public organizations responsible for the development of sport.
