Ludowe Zespoły Sportowe (LZS) ( Polish, in English Popular Sports Teams) is a union of Polish sport clubs, [2] mainly drawn from villages and small towns.
History
The union was established in 1946, with the first sport club LZS Czarnowąsy in Opole Voivodeship. It was initially a subset of the Inspectorate of Physical Education and Sport under the Samopomoc Chłopska (Peasant Mutual Aid) organizations in villages and small towns. However, structures were established at the province or Voivodeship levels by 1950, due to the LZS's popularity.
From the very beginning, the LZS has been connected with the Polish peasant movement. It had ties with local farmers' organisations and the United People's Party, and it is still supported by local structures of Polish People's Party.
Goals
