Ahead of the SPIN Women conference in Vienna in 2021 the founding organisations underwent an in-depth discussion process and agreed to formalize the network. Finally, they drafted statutes which were presented during the Vienna event to potential future member organisations. During the closing session of the SPIN Women conference SPIN partners launched the international Sport Inclusion Network (SPIN).
Meanwhile, the network has been registered as a non-profit association according to Austrian law in May 2023. The final statutes are available here.
Since then, the following organizations have joined SPIN:
