The NCAA’s demographics data provides a historical look at the gender and race/ethnicity of student-athletes, coaches and administrators in NCAA college sports. The data is submitted annually by NCAA member schools and has been available in a searchable online database since the 2011-12 academic year.

Note on Race/Ethnicity Categories:
When gender and race/ethnicity are combined (e.g., "White men," "Black women"), we report only three race/ethnicity groups: White, Black, and Other. The "Other" category includes all individuals who are not reported as White or Black (i.e., American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Black, Hispanic/Latino, International, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, Two or More Races).

This grouping helps ensure sufficient sample sizes for analysis and protects privacy in cases where data may be limited.
