Inclusion/Exclusion of Sport National Governing Bodies (NGB)
Locate the website for each sport’s National Governing Body listed below. After
investigating the website, answer the following questions: (1) is the NGB inclusive or not?
If not, who do they exclude: older participants and/or para-athletes? (2) Is the NGB’s
inclusion/exclusion consistent with its mission, goals, objectives, priorities, and/or vision?
(3) Do they have a Diversity and Inclusion statement posted on the website? (4) How
does this information make you feel about the NGB?
USA Swimming; USA Basketball; USA Badminton; USA Hockey; and USA Track & Field
Of the 27 Paralympic sports, 16 sports share the same NGB with their Olympic
counterpart, 6 sports have the Paralympic Sports Committee as their NGB, and 5 have
external organizations as their NGBS.
Why do you think some Olympic NGBs do not include the related Paralympic sport?
