kilpailutoimissa

Kilpailutoimissa is a Finnish term used to refer to activities related to competitions. It is formed from the words kilpailu (competition) and toiminta (activity), and the form kilpailutoimissa is the inessive plural, meaning “in the competition activities” or “within competition activities.” The phrase is common in organizational, educational, and sports contexts, where it describes the set of processes, events, and practices that organize, participate in, or support competitions.

Usage and scope often cover planning, promotion, participation, evaluation, and awards, as well as administrative tasks related to running contests and tournaments. The term is neutral and non-technical, suitable for formal documentation, program descriptions, and reports. It can refer to the competition-related part of a broader program, such as a school’s or association’s activities, and is frequently contrasted with other areas of activity, such as teaching or training.

Linguistic notes emphasize that kilpailutoimissa is a morphologically inflected form of kilpailutoiminta (competition activities). This makes it useful for sentences that specify location, scope, or context, for example to indicate what happens within the competition activities of an organization. While the exact events included in kilpailutoimissa will vary by organization, the term generally signals a structured set of competitive endeavors rather than informal or ad hoc contests.

In summary, kilpailutoimissa denotes the organized, ongoing activities surrounding competitions, applicable across education, sport, culture, and public or private sector contexts. See also kielimuotojen taivutus, kilpailu, toiminta.
