The community application comes from [[Sport Accord]], and it has engaged the International Sports Federations and the International Olympic Committee to comprise a Policy Advisory Board (PAB). "[R]egistrants in .sport must be recognized performers, organizers, promoters or supporters of federated Sport, or belong to categories of registrants recognized by the .sport Policy Advisory Board (PAB)." The Olympic Committee has previously been involved in discussions in [[ICANN]] regarding universal protections for its trademarks across all new gTLDs.

==Community Objection against Famous Four Media==
[[SportAccord]] filed a [[Community Objection]] against [[Famous Four Media]]'s application. The objection meant [[SportAccord]] argued that they represented the "sport" community and that this community would be harmed in some way if [[Famous Four Media]] had control of the [[gTLD]]. Panelist Guido Santiago Tawil of the [[International Chamber of Commerce]] was charged with deciding the objection's outcome, and he ruled in favor of [[SportAccord]]. This outcome would force [[Famous Four Media]] out of contention for the string, however the company made it clear that they will use all avenues available to stay in contention for the string, even if it means going to court.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/14918-famous-four-vows-to-fight-sport-objection-loss Famous Four vows to fight .sport Objection Loss, Domain Incite] Retrieved 04 Nov 2013</ref>
