Athletic organizations are groups that promote and manage sports activities at various levels, from local to international. They can include professional leagues, amateur clubs, and governing bodies that set rules and regulations for specific sports. Examples include the National Football League (NFL) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC). These organizations often provide resources for athletes, organize competitions, and support training programs. They also work to ensure fair play and safety in sports. Many athletic organizations focus on community engagement, encouraging participation in sports for health and social benefits.
