Donations and acquisitions of artefacts were made by individuals, collectors, athletes, sport workers, experts and pioneers, mainly consisting of sport equipment, medals, cups, sport suits, etc. Slovenia is strong especially in winter sports (skiing, ski jumps), gymnastics, handball, basketball, shooting, swiming ... so the collection presents Slovene sport legends as Mateja Svet, Mitja Petkovšek, Borut and Britta Bilač, Nataša Urbančič, Stanko Lorger, Cveto Pavčič, Bogdan Svet, Jure Zdovc, Mik Pavlovič, Marko Račič, Andrej Jelenc, and others. The collections comprise the Faculty of Sport Museum Collection with heritage of ski jump legend and constructor ing. Stanko Bloudek, Planica collection of Svetozar Guček, Bikers Society of Slovenia Collection, etc. In 2004 Slovene Sports Museum took over the Olympic Commitee of Slovenia Archives.
