There has been growing movement to need the Sports for the disabled. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and National Paralympic Committee (NPC) have been structured more systematically and more specialized. For the detailed understanding of the Sports for the disabled, we reviewed the history, international and national organization, and functional classification systems of the sports for the disabled.

At first, we have to classify using major classification systems and sports specific classification system. The most important thing in the Sports for the disabled is exact classification of the disability before event.
