The Sports Administration (SA; Chinese: 體育署; pinyin: Tǐyù Shǔ) is a sub-agency of the Taiwanese Ministry of Education.
History
[edit]The Sport Administration was initially established in 1932 as the Sports Council (體育委員會). On 12 January 1998, the Sports Affairs Council (行政院體育委員會) of the Executive Yuan was promulgated. Starting 1 January 2013, the council became the Sport Administration and placed under the Ministry of Education.
The Sports Administration is set to be replaced by the Ministry of Sports in September 2025.

[edit]The seal of the former Sports Affairs Council consists of three different colors: blue, green, and red. The color blue represents freedom and energy, green represents development, nature, health, and harmony, and red represents passion.[1]
The shape of the seal is combined with three different elements: ume, sun, and human. The ume is used as it is the national flower of the ROC. The sun represents energy and the human represents humanity.[1]
