FIFA is one of the biggest and most influential IF’s in sport and is a feather in the cap for the program operated and managed by the Global Association of International Sports Federations (GAISF).
"FIFA’s decision is a massive boost and a testament to the positive impact of a .sport URL,” GAISF Head of Digital Pierre Germeau said in a statement.
“It underlines that this is the global community every sports organisation want to be part of."
In addition, the Lausanne 2020 Youth Olympic Winter Games has become the latest major sports events organizer to officially migrate to a .sport domain.
“Our new .sport website will make our event easy to follow for fans from all around the world as well as highlighting the importance of the Youth Olympic Games and its place in world sport,” Lausanne 2020 Director General Ian Logan said.
More than 200 organizations have registered for a domain since GAISF officially began taking applications in September, including both FIFA and the IAAF.
Applications are still open for all leading sports organizations to register their exclusive domain name. Prospective applicants can find out more information and check the availability of their requested URL at start.sport.
