The International Emmy Award for Best Sports Documentary is presented by the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (IATAS) to honor the best sports documentaries produced and originally aired outside the United States. The award was first introduced in 2022 at the 50th annual International Emmys Awards.
Rules and regulations According to the rules of the International Academy, a sports documentary is "a factual presentation dedicated to physical or mind sports activities (e.g., team, individual, extreme, esports, intellectual, etc.), sports competitions, and/or sportspersons."
To qualify for the category, the program must be at least 20 minutes in length and must be a single edited program, broadcast in one or more episodes. If the program is a series, two episodes must be submitted to represent the series as a whole. The program may employ partial reenactments, stock footage, stills, animation, stop-motion, or other techniques, as long as the emphasis is on fact and not on fiction.
