Which UK body is an example of an organization involved in safety and integrity in sport?

• A. The Premier League
• B. FIFA
• C. The National Governing Bodies (NGBs) such as The FA
• D. The IOC

Answer: (C)

National Governing Bodies in the UK are the official organizations that govern a sport, responsible for safety and integrity by establishing rules, safeguarding policies, and disciplinary systems. They set standards for coaches, referees, facilities, and equipment, run safeguarding training, drug testing, and codes of conduct to protect participants and ensure fair play. The FA is an example of this in football, overseeing rules, welfare, and disciplinary matters within English football and coordinating with clubs and leagues to maintain high standards. The other options aren’t UK-based governing bodies with this nationwide governance role—the Premier League runs the top competition, while FIFA and the IOC operate at international levels.
