History


This Order was conferred upon Romanian citizens for achievements in sport. Recipients included athletes, coaches, and sports organizations. The Order was permanently suppressed after the collapse of the Socialist Republic in 1989.

Recipients of the I Class Breast Star were granted a monetary award of 1600 lei (400 USD) and four additional days of paid leave.

The obverse inscription translates to “Sport Merit.”

There may be additional version that vary in composition.

This Order was created alongside the Medal of Sport Merit. See also Medal of Sport Merit, in the Medals & Decorations of Romanian People's Republic & Romanian Socialist Republic (1947-1989).
