Minister of Sports
The Minister of Sports is a department of the Ministry of Culture devoted to promotion sports in Westarctica.
It was originally conceived as an independent ministry on the Royal Council on 2 November 2021.
In February 2025, the ministry was reassigned as a department under the Minister of Culture. Dame Kristina Sullivan currently serves as Deputy Minister of Culture for Sports.
Duties
Although the citizens of Westarctica are not frequently gathered together for social events, and thus it would be difficult to arrange team sporting events, this post is devoted to the health and wellbeing of the citizenry.
Activities
Although the ministry itself has been largely inactive since it was created, Westarctica has a robust culture which includes sporting events and teams.
Currently, the Westarctica Ice Krakens are a hockey team in the New England/Boston area comprised of citizens of Westarctica. They train and compete regularly during the winter hockey season.
In December 2024, the Ministry of Sports made its first appointments by making the 2nd Duke of Goldstream the captain of the Ice Krakens team and the Count of Dorchuck the alternate captain.
