Disciplinary Decisions in the Sport of Sailing

Disciplinary decisions within World Sailing are determined by Independent Panels appointed by the Judicial Board. Questions, reports, or comments on disciplinary matters should be sent by email or in writing to the Chief Executive Officer.

You can also contact WADA as part of their Speak Up! program which aims to help keep the integrity of sport and protect clean athletes.

Editor’s note: When we published our previous update on January 2, we remarked how we couldn’t recall a time when there was only one named person – Sofian Bouvet – on the list, and questioned whether we’d make it to August 23rd without someone else screwing up. Sadly, we got our answer.
