Za šport v Petržalke is a civic association (občianske združenie) founded in 2022 that manages the sports hall at Znievska 1 in Bratislava-Petržalka, known as GYM1. The association aims to keep sport accessible to children, youth, adults and seniors in the district. It runs the Fight Laboratory sports club, which trains children and adults in combat sports, and organises youth tournaments. Income from the gym is used to support young athletes and sports clubs, and some children train free of charge or at reduced fees. The association has been in dispute with the city district of Bratislava-Petržalka over the future management of the hall, and it has asked to take over the building under a long-term lease.
