SportsUnited
SportsUnited is the U.S. Department of State's sports diplomacy〔Politics and sports〕 division. SportsUnited uses sport to help youth around the world develop important off-the-court skills including leadership, mutual understanding and academic achievement. The four pillars of the program include Sports Envoys, Sports Visitors, Sports Grants, and the Empowering Women and Girls through Sport Initiative. The program began in 2002 and has since reached thousands of participants in more than 140 countries. An overarching theme in most of SportsUnited’s programming is disability sport access and inclusion.
== History ==
The U.S. Department of State, through the SportsUnited division, restarted sports programming in 2002 with a grants competition focused on Muslim community outreach. In 2003 the State Department brought a group of Iraqi archers to the U.S. to compete in the World Archery Championship. The State Department implemented the first Sports Envoy program in 2005 through a partnership with the NBA and Reebok. In 2006, the “World Cup Sports Initiative” marked the first large-scale sport diplomacy effort of the nascent SportsUnited Division. The World Cup Sports Initiative brought to the U.S. 30 youth from 13 countries to participate in World Cup-related programming around the theme “A time to make friends.” The program culminated with a visit to Germany, where the group attended a World Cup match between the U.S. and the host country. Since then, SportsUnited has involved more than 1500 athletes and coaches from over 140 countries in its programs. 〔http://eca.state.gov/programs-initiatives/sports-diplomacy〕
