Since 2015, the ISA has hosted an annual World Para Surfing Championship gathering the world’s best Para Surfers in elite level competition. Under the ISA’s leadership and direction the sport of Para Surfing has grown massively in global participation and interest. We have put a mandate out to all of our 110 National Federations to adopt the discipline of Para Surfing on a national level and include the discipline as a part of their programs and activities.
45 out of the ISA’s 113 member federations engage in Para Surfing activity on a national level running national championships either independently or in conjunction with their able bodied national championships. These national championships allow athletes to compete at a high level in their home nations and qualify to represent their country at the World Para Surfing Championship.
In addition to the ISA World Para Surfing Championship and the national championships run by ISA Members there has been a booming growth in both regional and international Para Surfing competition opportunities including the beginning of a professional world tour for Para Surfing competition the Association of Adaptive Surfing Professionals hosted two professional international competitions in 2022 and the Para Surf League,supporting international Para Surfing competitions. These events outside of the ISA World Para Surfing Championship include the full spectrum of competition opportunities for Para Surfing athletes which starts from a grassroots and local level within our National Federations and their national championships and grows up to regional and continental championships, professional competitions, and world championships.
