The bill establishes the Kansas sports tourism grant program, which will be administered by the secretary of commerce. The program aims to provide matching grants to tourism or sports-related organizations to support and enhance sports tourism events in Kansas, thereby attracting out-of-state visitors and generating economic impact. Grants will be awarded on a $1-for-$1 matching basis, contingent upon a post-event analysis, and will be limited to a maximum of 12.5% of the state sales tax generated during the event period. The bill also stipulates that at least $250,000 of the available funds must be reserved for events in counties other than Sedgwick, Wyandotte, and Johnson.

Additionally, the bill outlines the application process for grants, requiring applicants to submit detailed information about the expected economic impact and hotel occupancy related to their events. It specifies eligible and ineligible expenses for grant funds, mandates a post-event report from grant recipients, and establishes a Kansas sports tourism program grant fund to manage the allocated funds. The program is set to expire on June 30, 2030, at which point any remaining funds will be transferred to the state general fund. The secretary of commerce is also required to submit annual reports detailing the program's impact and grant distribution.
