यहां अंतरराष्ट्रीय खेल संघों की सूची दी गई है , जो खेल के लिए एक गैर-सरकारी शासी निकाय के रूप में काम करते हैं, और विश्व स्तर पर खेल का संचालन करते हैं। यह सूची खेलों की पूरी सूची की नींव बनाती है , जिसमें यहां सूचीबद्ध की तुलना में कई और विश्व खेल शामिल हैं।
अंतर्राष्ट्रीय खेल महासंघ की भूमिका में नियमों को विनियमित करना, खेल को बढ़ावा देना, खिलाड़ियों का विकास करना और चैंपियनशिप का आयोजन करना शामिल है। कुछ अंतरराष्ट्रीय खेल संघ कई खेलों की देखरेख कर सकते हैं।
ऐसे शासी निकाय हैं जो पर्यवेक्षक का दर्जा हासिल करने वाले पहले व्यक्ति बन गए हैं जिन्हें अभी तक आधिकारिक तौर पर खेल संघों के रूप में मान्यता नहीं मिली है। 2017 में, ग्लोबल एसोसिएशन ऑफ इंटरनेशनल स्पोर्ट्स फेडरेशन (GAISF) ने कुछ संभावित नए आधिकारिक खेलों, जैसे आर्म रेसलिंग , डॉजबॉल , फुटगोल्फ , केटलबेल लिफ्टिंग, पोकर , पोल स्पोर्ट्स और टेबल सॉकर को ‘पर्यवेक्षक का दर्जा’ दिया।
