E-Scooter Racing

Supported & Enabled by the Elympic Sports Federation​

 

E-Scooter Racing represents the evolution of competitive sport for the electric, urban, and sustainability-focused era. Combining speed, skill, technology, and accessibility, it transforms everyday micromobility into a structured, exciting, and globally scalable racing discipline.

The Elympic Sports Federation (ESF) supports E-Scooter Racing as a core future sport, working alongside existing leagues, event organisers, and promoters, while also developing federation-led competitions where structure, safety, and international alignment are required.

​

What Is E-Scooter Racing?

E-Scooter Racing is a competitive sport based on electric scooter technology, raced in controlled environments such as circuits, closed urban courses, purpose-built tracks, or arena-style formats.

The discipline includes:

• Grassroots and community racing

• Amateur and developmental leagues

• Professional and elite competition

• City-based and destination racing events

E-Scooter Racing reflects the shift toward clean energy, smart cities, and accessible sport, making it uniquely suited to modern urban environments.

​

ESF’s Role in E-Scooter Racing

ESF operates as a global enabling federation for E-Scooter Racing.

Rather than replacing existing initiatives, ESF provides:

• Structure where structure is needed

• Alignment where fragmentation exists

• Neutral governance where credibility matters

ESF’s role is to help E-Scooter Racing mature into a safe, sustainable, and internationally aligned competitive sport, without restricting innovation or local creativity.

​

A Dual-Track Approach: Collaboration & ESF-Led Competitions

ESF supports E-Scooter Racing through two complementary pathways.

​

1. Collaboration with Existing Leagues & Promoters

ESF works in conjunction with existing E-Scooter Racing leagues, event organisers, promoters, and mobility initiatives worldwide.

Collaboration may include:

• Co-hosted or supported race events

• Federation endorsement or sanctioning

• Alignment across regions and cities

• Shared best practices in safety and competition structure

Participation with ESF is voluntary, flexible, and non-exclusive.

​

2. ESF Competition Platforms

Where appropriate, ESF will develop and operate its own E-Scooter Racing competition platforms and events.

ESF-led competitions are designed to:

• Establish best-practice safety and racing standards

• Support cities or regions without existing infrastructure

• Pilot innovative race formats and technologies

• Provide neutral, federation-governed competition environments

These competitions may operate independently or in partnership with cities, venues, leagues, and commercial partners.

​

Grassroots to Professional Pathways

ESF strongly supports clear progression pathways within E-Scooter Racing.

These pathways include:

• Community and grassroots racing programs

• Amateur and entry-level competitions

• Semi-professional and regional circuits

• Professional and international racing

Whether delivered through partner platforms or ESF-led initiatives, the goal is to ensure safe access, talent development, and long-term opportunity for riders.

​

Community Support & Education

The Elympic Sports Federation recognises that sustainable sports ecosystems are built on education, community engagement, and accessible pathways.

Across all ESF-supported disciplines, ESF encourages:

• Community-led participation and safe entry points

• Education-linked programs and skills development

• Responsible technology use and awareness

• Talent discovery beyond elite competition

Through collaboration with clubs, schools, training providers, and industry partners, ESF supports initiatives that connect competition with real-world skills, career pathways, and future-focused education.

​

Safety, Technology & Integrity

Safety and integrity are fundamental to the growth of E-Scooter Racing.

Across all ESF-supported activities, collaborative or federation-operated, ESF promotes:

• Clear safety frameworks and rider protection

• Fair and transparent competition rules

• Responsible use of electric and battery technology

• Ethical standards and event professionalism

• Sustainable and commercially viable race models

ESF provides governance where it adds value, while remaining adaptable as technology and formats evolve.

​

Cities, Sustainability & the Future of Racing

E-Scooter Racing is uniquely aligned with:

• Smart city development

• Low-emission transport initiatives

• Urban activation and tourism

• Youth engagement and future mobility education

ESF supports E-Scooter Racing as both a competitive sport and a city-scale activation, capable of delivering cultural, economic, and sustainability benefits.
