Home›Sports›All SportsBrowse ByAll SportsReference and ClassificationDevelopingThis category is the top-level index for the atlas's Sport entities: the formally organized competitive sports this atlas documents, each defined by its own rules, scoring system and governing structure, such as association football, athletics or swimming. Each entry covers the sport itself rather than an athlete, a competition or a governing body, which are filed under their own respective types elsewhere in the atlas.All SportsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)All SportsFilter Results94 entriesOrigin RegionAllAcapulco, Mexico (1)Ancient Greece (1)Bainbridge Island, Washington, United States (1)British Isles (1)Chicago, Illinois, United States (1)Dnieper and Don river region (modern Ukraine and Russia) (1)England (4)Europe (2)Europe (Austria, Germany, Denmark, Sweden) (1)Europe (France) (1)Europe (Lwow, Poland, present-day Lviv, Ukraine) (1)France (Paris) (1)Germany (1)Greater Iran (1)India (1)Ireland (2)Japan (2)Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (1)Michigan, United States (1)Netherlands (1)North America (1)Northern Europe (1)Norway (1)Polynesia (1)Ryukyu Kingdom, Okinawa, Japan (1)Scandinavia (1)Scotland (1)Scotland and England (1)Southeast Asia (1)Springfield, Massachusetts, United States (1)Switzerland (1)Thailand (1)United Kingdom and United States (1)United States (4)United States, developed from English bat and ball games (1)Derived FromAllArchery (1)Association Football (1)Badminton (2)Baseball (1)Basketball (1)Boxing (1)Gaelic Football (1)Handball (1)Hurling (1)Judo (1)Karate (2)Muay Thai (1)Rugby Union (3)Squash (2)Tennis (3)Weightlifting (1)Origin YearAll-3000 (2)-776 (1)-708 (1)-648 (1)400 (1)642 (1)1100 (1)1598 (1)1744 (1)1763 (1)1767 (1)1808 (1)1811 (1)1820 (1)1830 (1)1837 (1)1839 (1)1845 (1)1856 (1)1859 (1)1863 (1)1866 (1)1867 (2)1868 (1)1869 (1)1870 (1)1871 (1)1873 (1)1874 (1)1875 (2)1882 (2)1883 (2)1884 (1)1886 (1)1887 (1)1891 (2)1892 (1)1895 (2)1896 (4)1900 (1)1901 (1)1905 (1)1906 (1)1907 (1)1912 (1)1913 (1)1917 (1)1921 (2)1924 (3)1925 (1)1926 (1)1931 (1)1950 (1)1955 (1)1960 (1)1964 (1)1965 (2)1966 (1)1969 (1)1977 (1)1993 (1)Olympic Programme StatusAllCurrent Olympic Sport (48)Demonstration Sport (Historical) (4)Former Olympic Sport (3)IOC-Recognised Sport (Not on Programme) (1)Not an Olympic Sport (12)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 94AerobaticsAir SportsAlpine SkiingWinter Snow SportsAmerican FootballFootball CodesArcheryPrecision SportsArtistic SwimmingAquatic SportsAssociation FootballFootball CodesAthleticsTrack and Field DisciplinesAustralian Rules FootballFootball CodesBadmintonRacket SportsBaseballBat-and-Ball SportsBasketballCourt and Net Team SportsBiathlonWinter Snow SportsBMXCycling DisciplinesBobsleighWinter Snow SportsBodybuildingGymnastics and Strength SportsBoxingCombat SportsBrazilian jiu-jitsuCombat SportsCanoeingWater and Boat SportsCricketBat-and-Ball SportsCyclingCycling DisciplinesDartsPrecision SportsDivingAquatic SportsEquestrianEquestrian SportsFencingCombat SportsField HockeyHockey CodesFigure SkatingIce Skating SportsFreedivingAquatic SportsFreestyle motocrossAction SportsFreestyle skiingWinter Snow SportsGaelic FootballFootball CodesGlidingAir SportsGolfPrecision SportsGymnasticsGymnastics and Strength SportsHandballCourt and Net Team SportsHorse RacingEquestrian SportsHurlingHockey CodesIce HockeyHockey CodesJudoCombat SportsKarateCombat SportsKickboxingCombat SportsLacrosseHockey CodesLawn bowlsPrecision SportsLugeWinter Snow SportsMarathonTrack and Field DisciplinesMartial ArtsCombat SportsMixed Martial ArtsCombat SportsMotocrossMotorsportMotor RacingMotorsportMotorcycle racingMotorsportMountaineeringMultisport and Endurance SportsMuay ThaiCombat SportsNetballCourt and Net Team SportsNordic SkiingWinter Snow SportsOlympic SportsMulti-Sport ProgrammesOrienteeringMultisport and Endurance SportsPadelRacket SportsParaglidingAir SportsPickleballRacket SportsPoloEquestrian SportsPool (cue sports)Precision SportsPowerliftingGymnastics and Strength SportsProfessional wrestlingCombat SportsRacquetballRacket SportsRoad runningTrack and Field DisciplinesRock ClimbingGymnastics and Strength SportsRowingWater and Boat SportsRugby LeagueFootball CodesRugby UnionFootball CodesSailingWater and Boat SportsScuba divingAquatic SportsSepak TakrawCourt and Net Team SportsShootingPrecision SportsSkateboardingAction SportsSki JumpingWinter Snow SportsSnookerPrecision SportsSnowboardingWinter Snow SportsSoftballBat-and-Ball SportsSpeed SkatingIce Skating SportsSquashRacket SportsStrongmanGymnastics and Strength SportsSubmission grapplingCombat SportsSumoCombat SportsSurfingAquatic SportsSwimmingAquatic SportsTable TennisRacket SportsTaekwondoCombat SportsTennisRacket SportsTen-Pin BowlingPrecision SportsTriathlonMultisport and Endurance SportsUltramarathonMultisport and Endurance SportsVolleyballCourt and Net Team SportsWater PoloAquatic SportsWeightliftingGymnastics and Strength SportsWrestlingCombat SportsSourcesWikipedia, Golftier 2WikipediaContains: GolfView the SourceWikipedia, Squash (sport)tier 2WikipediaContains: SquashView the SourceWikipedia, Water Polotier 2WikipediaContains: Water PoloView the SourceComments (0)No comments yet.
