Sports Federation
A Sports Federation is an organization that governs and promotes a specific sport or group of sports at a national or international level. These federations are responsible for setting rules, organizing competitions, and ensuring fair play among athletes. They also work to develop the sport, increase participation, and support athletes in their training and competition.
Many Sports Federations are affiliated with larger organizations, such as the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which oversees sports included in the Olympic Games. Examples of well-known federations include the FIFA for soccer and the IAAF for athletics. These federations play a crucial role in the growth and regulation of sports worldwide.
