FIAS and CSCF Consulting are working together to raise awareness on fighting sports manipulations in sport amongst sambists, SAMBO sports personnel and sports managers.

The International SAMBO Federation and CSCF Consulting have signed a 3-year contract to develop an educational program on fighting sports manipulations (match-fixing) in order to strengthen the integrity of SAMBO. The educational program will be available to the 116 National SAMBO Federations in America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania where SAMBO has a presence.

During the next 3 years, we will be developing different action plans, events, training, and programs in order to provide a comprehensive education on sports manipulations for athletes and sports personnel of SAMBO.

Internationally recognized experts in the field of combating sports manipulations from various organizations will contribute to the success of the different activities.

“It is important to prepare the athletes to be able to stand up against manipulation in sport and to keep the sport clean, fair, and unpredictable.” – said by Michal Buchel, CEO of FIAS.

“I believe that education is the best way to have a better understanding of integrity issues especially manipulations in sports competitions (match-fixing)" – said Norbert Rubicsek, Managing Partner of CSCF Consulting.

The cooperation between both parties will bring exceptional work for combating these issues, provide a better understanding, and tackle the dangers of sports manipulations in sport in order to create a safe environment for the athletes.
