The IAAF Council, meeting in Mombasa, Kenya, has resolved that all members of the IAAF Family including, but not limited to officials, athletes, athlete representatives, managers, coaches, meeting organizers and trainers, should be forbidden from taking part, either directly or indirectly, in betting, gambling and similar events or transactions connected with athlete competitions under the rules of the IAAF or its Members.
Such persons should further be forbidden from having active stakes in companies, concerns, partnerships, joint ventures or other organizations that promote, broker, arrange or conduct such events or transactions.
The Juridical Commission has been given the mandate to draw up appropriate regulations, guidelines and rules.
