From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of official sports governing bodies, federations and associations for Sport in Pakistan. All governing bodies are led by or under the supervision of Pakistan Sports Board or Pakistan Olympic Association. Currently, the Board is affiliated with 44 National Sports Federations and 03 departments. Each of these Federations has the responsibility of promoting and advancing their specific sports or games.[1]

Overview[edit]

The 18th Amendment to Pakistan's constitution passed in 2010 brought substantial alterations to the country's sports landscape.[2] Consequently, it caused a transformation in the framework and functioning of sports in Pakistan.[3] Among these changes was the decentralization of various federal ministries to the provinces. This encompassed the Ministry of Sports, which was devolved as part of the third and concluding phase of the 18th Amendment.[4] The Pakistan Sports Board, which is responsible for controlling and promoting sports in the country, operates under the Ministry of Inter Provincial Coordination.[5]
