This list of Jewish athletes in sports contains athletes who are Jewish and have attained outstanding achievements in sports. The criteria for inclusion in this list are: * 1–3 places winners at major international tournaments; * for team sports, winning in preliminary competitions of finals at major international tournaments, or playing for several seasons for clubs of major national leagues; or * holders of past and current world records. Boldface denotes a current competitor. The topic of Jewish participation in sports is discussed extensively in academic and popular literature, because of the perceived role of sports as a historical avenue for Jewish people to overcome obstacles toward their participation in secular society (especially in Europe and the United States).〔''See, e.g.'': ''Encyclopedia of Jewish people in Sports'' by Bernard Postal, Jesse Silver, Roy Silver (1965); ''Great Jews in Sports'' by Robert Slater (2003), ISBN 0-8246-0453-9; ''Emancipation Through Muscles: Jews and Sports in Europe'' by Michael Brenner, Gideon Reuveni (2006), ISBN 0-8032-1355-7; ''Jewish, Sports, and the Rites of Citizenship'' ed.
