Dwarf Athletic Association of America

DAAA holds the idea that there is a lack of sports opportunity for little people in America and they look to fill the void and provide an environment that rewards dwarf athletes by taking their potential seriously and giving them a realistic opportunity to succeed through hard work and dedication.

The DAAA also believes that "the dream of honoring America in international competition should be as real for a dwarf athlete as it is for any other in the country.

"[2] According to its website,[2] the DAAA's mission is: "To encourage people with dwarfism to participate in sports regardless of their level of skills."

[3] These requirements include (but are not limited to): In addition to the development of youth and adult dwarf athletes, the DAAA also organizes a number of local, regional, and national events to promote healthy competition among other little people.

[4] In 2007, the National Dwarf Games were held in Seattle, Washington,[5] in conjunction with the 2007 Little People of America conference.
