Sports are defined as any competitive physical activity or game that aims to maintain or improve physical ability. Sports are usually governed by a set of rules to ensure fair competition and allow consistent judging of winners. Winning can be determined by physical events like scoring goals or crossing a finish line first, or by judges scoring elements of performance. The definition of a sport according to Sport Accord is that it must have an element of competition, not be harmful, not rely solely on equipment from a single supplier, and not depend mainly on luck. Disabled or adaptive sports are versions of existing sports modified to meet the needs of people with disabilities or are sports created specifically for those with disabilities.
