National Paralympic Committee
A National Paralympic Committee (NPC) is a national sports organization, with responsibility for sport for athletes with a disability, that is a member of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC).
There are currently 161 NPC members of the IPC. Only NPCs in good standing may enter athletes in the Paralympic Games. Within countries, some NPCs serve as the national governing body for one or more sports, while others only act as the IPC member with responsibility for Paralympic Games.
