Dear President of Panathlon Club,
Dear Panathlon International Members,
As informed previously, Panathlon International is participating in an Erasmus+ project, which is being funded by the European Union. This project is called “Sport Against Match-Fixing". In this project, Panathlon International is joined by other relevant sporting organisations from different countries and different sports.
The goal of the project is to raise awareness to key topics related to the prevention of match-fixing and the consequences and risks of this unethical and unfair phenomenon, especially considering the negative impact it can unleash on the career of grassroot athletes. To tackle this, this Project is seeking to, amongst other, develop a web-based educational which will assist with the main objective, which is to prevent the engangement with match-fixing practices.
This project is expected to last until 2024 and Panathlon International is actively involved in the delivery of set objectives.
As Clubs and Panathlon Members, we are now seeking your assistance and for your active contribution so that these objectives can be reached. Consequently, we need your assistance with:
1) the identification of best practices that your Club/ you have developed related to the prevention of match-fixing (e.g. a Session that your Club/ you have presented and/or a result/idea launched/implemented). This can also be best practices that you have identified and that you think could be worth exploring. We're more than available to collect any ideas and suggestions.
2) the identification of sports persons (e.g. athletes, coaches, referees, managers) which are aware about the topic of match-fixing and that could participate in an anonymised questionnaire/interview? Preferably, it would be great that these sports persons are Panathlon International members.
Please submit your answers to general.secretariat@panathlon.net until 22/08/2022, 23.59 (deadline).
We look forward to your active collaboration and to keep you updated on the progress of the SAMF Project.
Please also make sure to follow the social media of the SAMF Project, which you can find below:
Thank you and best regards,
Simona Callo Fábio Figueiras
