The National Institute For Sport Excellence The Wingate Institute, The National Institute For Sport Excellence, lies on a vibrant campus spread over some 120 acres, between Tel-Aviv and Netanya off the coastal highway. Wingate Institute was inaugurated in 1957, as Israel's National Center for Physical Education and Sport and is named in honor of Major General Orde Charles Wingate known as “The Friend". In those days the State of Israel concentrated at the Institute the educational, professional and scientific resources for the development of physical education, "sport for all", and elite sport and sport as a means of social and physical rehabilitation. Some 5,000 academics, coaches, athletes, students and the general public - both native-born Israeli and new immigrants - pass daily through Wingate's gates. As the National Center for Sport, Wingate aims to promote sports and an active lifestyle among the entire community. In recognition of extraordinary achievements in the field of education, sport medicine and research, the then President of the State of Israel - the late Mr. Haim Herzog - awarded the prestigious Israel Prize to the Wingate Institute in 1989. In 2018, with the implementation of "Wingate Law", the Wingate Institute was designated as a government corporation under the Israeli Ministry of Culture and Sport, and his name was changed to " The National Institute For Sport Excellence".
