The bill proposes the creation of the Ohio Sports Commission, which will be established within the Department of Development. The commission's primary purpose is to enhance the quality of life in Ohio by attracting, promoting, and developing national and international sports. It will collaborate with various stakeholders, including convention and visitor bureaus, chambers of commerce, and sports organizations, to host sporting events that benefit the state's economy and image.

Additionally, the bill outlines the formation of a board of commissioners for the Ohio Sports Commission, consisting of seventeen members representing diverse interests, including government officials, student and professional athlete organizations, and local sports commissions. The board will be responsible for studying sports tourism, developing policy recommendations, and potentially establishing a grant program to support emerging sports economies. Furthermore, the Ohio Sports Commission Fund will be created to manage financial resources for the commission's activities, including grants and contributions.
