The Cerebral Palsy International Sports and Recreation Association (CPISRA), a founding member of the Paralympic movement, was an international sports and recreation association for cerebral palsy and related neurological conditions. CPISRA organised recreational opportunities, developed adaptive sports and organised sport events for people with Cerebral Palsy and related neurological conditions. CPISRA was formed in 1969. It was made up of worldwide members and a community of volunteers including an advisory board, specialist committees and networks.

In November 2022, CPISRA merged with IWAS (International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports Federation) to form World Abilitysport.

CPISRA and IWAS were both IOSD members of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). Combined they are the IPC’s IOSD for persons with physical disability.

1. Athletics
2. Boccia
3. CP football
4. Swimming
5. Wheelchair Slalom
6. Racerunning

The first CP World Games were held by the International CP Society (ICPS) in 1972. CPISRA became independent from the ICPS in 1978 and since then has held regular regional and world championships. In 2018, Sant Cugat in Spain hosted the CPISRA World Games and welcomed 600 participants from 30 countries for the broadest schedule to date, showcasing World Class competition in elite para-sport, as well as development sport camps and competitions.

This transpired to be the last CPISRA World Games before the merger and creation of World Abilitysport and the introduction of World Abilitysport Games in 2023.
