The Billiards and Snooker Congress of the Philippines (BSCP) is the only National Sports Association (NSA) for billiards sport in the country duly recognized by the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC), the only sports organization in the nation recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
The BSCP is governed in the continent by the Asian Pocket-Billiards Union (APBU) for the pool discipline, the Asian Congress of Billiards and Snooker (ACBS) for the snooker discipline and the Asian Carom and Billiards Confederation (ACBC) for carom.
Each of these Asian sport federations are under a specific International Sports Federation (IF) such as the World Pool-Billiards Association (WPA), International Billiards and Snooker Federation (IBSF) and the Union Mondiale de Billiards (UMB) all of which are under the World Confederation of Billiard Sports (WCBS) the only organization for billiard sports recognized by the IOC.
Other than following the rules and regulations of each IF, the BSCP also abides by their charter ensuring the universality of it policies that governs its members and officers.
Following one of the many rulings of the IOC regarding fairplay, the BSCP adheres to the World Anti-Doping Agency's (WADA) code in eliminating the use of illegal drugs and enhancing substances in and out of competition.
The Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) is the only government sports agency directly funding the NSAs with their elite and mass based programs. However, the PSC is not part of the Olympic family.
