The Official Sports Capital of the United States Designation Act of 2025 aims to officially designate the District of Columbia as the only Official Sports Capital of the United States. The bill mandates the Washington Convention and Sports Authority (Events DC) to create and execute a comprehensive plan to promote and enhance the District's status as a premier destination for sports events, teams, and activities. This plan will include initiatives to attract major sporting events, increase investment in youth sports, foster partnerships with various sports teams, and implement marketing strategies to highlight the District's sports culture.

The bill outlines the District's rich sports history, noting its numerous professional, collegiate, and amateur teams, as well as its capacity to host significant national and international sporting events. It emphasizes the importance of this designation for boosting tourism, economic development, and national recognition of the District's sports culture. Additionally, Events DC is required to submit a report to the Council within 120 days of the act's effective date, detailing the implementation of the proposed plan.
