Relationships

The IFCPF has been trying to establish relationships with other international football organizations. In 2016, it signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Asian Football Confederation. Part of this involved the AFC supporting an AFC Youth CP Football Tournament in 2017.[6] In 2014, 2015 and 2016, IFCPF was getting financial support from UEFA.[6]

Activities

Among the activities the organization does is to organize international tournaments for cerebral palsy football.[7][8] This includes the qualification tournament for the IFCPF World Championships, and the IFCPF World Championships themselves.[9][10] The IFCPF is in charge of the sport's Paralympic efforts. They set the team qualifying criteria for the Paralympic Games.[11] They were also involved in the request to keep cerebral palsy football on the program for the 2020 Summer Paralympics. The sports removal came as a surprise to the organization.[12]

Anti-doping

The IFCPF is a WADA signatory.[13] In 2016, after getting an endorsement by the World AntiDoping Agency (WADA), the IFCPF Anti-Doping Code was formally amended to allow for out of competition testing. This was done through a WADA approved Whereabouts Programme managed through ADAMS. Drawing from players in a Registered Testing Pool, 10 players from 9 countries were initially included ahead of the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio. These countries included Netherlands, Japan, Russia, Iran, Argentina, Ireland, Ukraine, England, and Brazil.[14]

Rankings

The IFCPF ranks national teams. Rankings are based on tournament placement, with a factoring done to give additional weight to the Paralympic Games and IFCPF World Championships.[15]

World wide participation

Cerebral palsy football has world-wide reach, and is played on all five continents. Many countries have IFCPF recognized national championships and national leagues. In 2010, there were 12 countries with IFCPF recognized competitions. The number grew to 21 by 2015.[16]
