The International Sports Press Association (French: Association internationale de la presse sportive, AIPS) is an international association for sports journalists. It is recognised by the International Olympic Committee and is a member of the Global Association of International Sports Federations.

The AIPS was founded in Paris in 1924 by Frantz Reichel, who headed the organising committee for the 1924 Summer Olympics, and Victor Boin. Reichel and Boin served as the first president and vice-president of the association, respectively. On Reichel's death in 1932, Boin became president. Since 2005, the president has been Gianni Merlo. The AIPS is based in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The eponymous AIPS magazine is published four times a year. The Association also presents the Power of Sports Award and the AIPS Sport Media Awards, the highest international award for sports journalists.
