Rules for betting and corruption to protect the sport of archery
Lausanne – 16 May 2012
The World Archery Executive Board has approved rules for betting and corruption to protect the sport of archery.
Following the establishment of model rules by ASOIF, the World Archery Executive Board approves unanimously the rules on betting and corruption to protect the integrity of the sport of archery. World Archery thanks ASOIF for the establishment of such rules which are very beneficial for sports like archery that have no experience in the matter and therefore could benefit from sports with a long tradition in fighting this danger for modern sports.
These rules come into effect immediately and will help World Archery and the IOC to actively fight against this matter in London.
We also remind all of the Archery family that everyone with an accreditation in the London Olympic Games is not allowed to be involved in any kind of betting and that such action can result in serious sanctions by the IOC and World Archery.
The Executive Board also approved a minor change in the World Anti-Doping rules and the order of shooting for the finals in 3D archery.
