Frequently Asked Questions

How does a National Olympic Committee differ from a National Sport Federation?

A National Olympic Committee represents the whole Olympic Movement in a country, while a National Sport Federation governs one sport there.

National Olympic Committees covers a country's representative body within the Olympic Movement, responsible for sending teams to the Olympic and Paralympic Games and for developing sport nationally, sometimes combined with a national sports confederation under one body. A country's federation for a single sport is grouped instead under National Sport Federations, so the dividing line is whether the body represents the whole Olympic Movement in that country or one sport specifically.
