Objective of the study was to identify mechanisms of effective implementation of public-private partnership in the Sverdlovsk region as part of the development of the region’s ice hockey infrastructure.
Methods and structure of the study. The study was carried out on the Sverdlovsk region ice arenas built and put into operation within the framework of the implementation of "Agreement between the government of the Sverdlovsk Region and UMMC-Holding, LLC".
Results and conclusions. Considering the implementation of the mechanisms of public-private partnership by the example of the above-mentioned "Agreement", it can be said that the actions of the regional authorities contribute to the sustainable development of the sector, as well as the strategic planning of the economic and social development of the region. The system approach and the long-term project implementation have had a positive impact on the development of sport and the increase in the number of participants: the number of ice hockey players in the Sverdlovsk region increased from 16,258 in 2017 to 24,155 in 2019.
With regard to the economic dimension and further improvements in the partnership mechanisms, it is necessary to increase the profitability of sports facilities, their sustainability, and the level of management efficiency, which can be realized through other forms of public-private partnership as part of the models involving the maintenance of sports facilities by a private partner.

Keywords: public-private partnership, sports infrastructure, ice arena, resource allocation, physical education and mass sports ecosystem.
