Paralympic football consists of adaptations of the sport of association football for athletes with a physical disability. These sports are typically played using International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) rules, with modifications to the field of play, equipment, numbers of players, and other rules as required to make the game suitable for the athletes.
The two most prominent versions of paralympic football are 5-a-side football, for athletes with visual impairments, and 7-a-side football for athletes with cerebral palsy.
