Do sportsmen also receive pension from the government?

[Good-Person]

Sportsmen are the people who represent nations in different kinds of tournaments. This may also include world cup as well. Sportsmen are very important for a nation. So, do you think that they also receive some kind of pension from the state?

In our country, if a sportsperson who has played for many years in the national team, retires he will receive allowances. However, there is no pension plan. For example cricketers and footballers continue to receive allowances even after they retire. The amount is not much though.
