Sports Association List 2022
Here is a list of world-wide sports organizations, all of which acts as an non-governmental governing body in the particular sport. They also manage its sport at a global level, usually by drafting rules for the sport, promoting it to prospective spectators and fans and players who are aspiring to become and organizing world or continental championships. Some international sports federations like FINA, the International Swimming Federation and the International Skating Union, may regulate multiple activities, which are often referred to in common parlance as separate sports: FINA regulates, for instance, swimming diving, synchronised diving as separate "disciplines" within the single "sport" of Aquatics.
International sports federations constitute an integral component of Olympic and Paralympic movements. Each Olympic sporting event is represented by an international sports federation. It assists in coordinating the events of its sporting discipline at the Games. To become an Olympic sport the international sports federation must be recognised by the International Olympic Committee.
Also, an international sporting federation has to be recognized through the International Paralympic Committee to allow its sport to qualify as one of the paralympic sports, even though in this case, several Paralympic Sports are controlled by a dedicated Committee of the International Paralympic Committee itself, according to the World Para branding, for example track and field athletics for disabled athletes is governed by the IPC itself, with the designation "World Para Athletics". Other Paralympic sport are also governed by the framework of the able-bodied equivalent to paralympic cycling. For instance, the UCI governs both able-bodied and paralympic cycling.
