International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics Association
The International Gay & Lesbian Aquatics Association (known as IGLA) is the international governing body for gay and lesbian aquatics clubs, representing the sports of swimming, diving, synchronised swimming, water polo, and open water swimming.〔(Gay News Network, "Eurogames Stockholm to host 2015 International Lesbian and Gay World Aquatic Championships, by Cec Busby, 20 June 2014 )〕〔(Curve, "Make your next stop Stockholm", by Lisa Tedesco, 16 July 2014 )〕〔Davidson, Judy. "Sporting homonationalisms: Sexual exceptionalism, queer privilege, and the 21st century international lesbian and gay sport movement." Sociology of Sport Journal 30.1 (2013): 57-82.〕〔Jakubowska, Honorata. "From Keeping Silent to Coming Out-the Status of Sexual Minorities in Sports." Kultura i Spoleczenstwo 58.1 (2014): 155-167.〕 Member clubs are from 16 countries, with the majority of clubs in the United States and Canada.〔http://www.igla.org/members/igla-teams/〕 Past presidents of the association have included Scott Kohanowski (of Team New York Aquatics) and Gareth Johnson (of Out to Swim London).
IGLA is one of the key organisations involved in the running of the Gay Games, which are held every four years.〔Hargreaves, Jennifer, and Eric Anderson, eds. Routledge Handbook of Sport, Gender and Sexuality. Routledge, 2014.〕〔Skúladóttir, Auður Olga. "Íþróttaviðburðir og ferðamennska í Vestmannaeyjum." (2011).〕〔Pogam, Yves Le, et al. "Homophobie et structuration des jeux sportifs homosexuels." Corps et culture 6/7 (2004).〕 In years in which the Gay Games are not held, IGLA holds an international competition open to its member clubs. The organization is a part of the larger movement of a niche travel industry, LGBTQ sports tourism.〔Pitts, Brenda G. "Sports tourism and niche markets: Identification and analysis of the growing lesbian and gay sports tourism industry." Journal of Vacation Marketing 5.1 (1999): 31-50.〕
==History==
The IGLA name was chosen in 1987 to keep the community spirit of competition going from the recently held Gay Olympics that had started in San Francisco by Tom Waddell.〔Symons, Caroline. "Challenging homophobia and heterosexism in sport." Sport and Gender Identities: 140.〕 The Gay Olympics was later forced to change its name to Gay Games but the event itself was successful in allowing LGBT athletes from around the world to compete in Olympic, exhibition and art events. To carry on the international aspect for the LGBT aquatics community the International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics was named to hold a yearly international championship event.〔http://www.chicagoriptide.com/history.htm〕 By Gay Games III IGLA was officially a part of the Games organizing.〔Symons, Caroline. "Challenging homophobia and heterosexism in sport." Sport and gender identities: Masculinities, femininities and sexualities (2007): 140-159.〕
