Main Info about Key Principles

Key Principles And Rules

Key principles of sport include that the result should not be predetermined, and that both sides should have equal opportunity to win. Rules are in place to ensure that fair play to occur, but participants can break these rules in order to gain advantage.

Participants may choose to cheat in order to satisfy their desire to win, or in order to achieve an ulterior motive. The widespread existence of gambling on the results of sports fixtures creates the motivation for match fixing, where a participant or participants deliberately work to ensure a given outcome.

Doping and drugs

The competitive nature of sport encourages some participants to attempt to enhance their performance through the use of medicines, or through other means such as increasing the volume of blood in their bodies through artificial means.

All sports recognised by the IOC or SportAccord are required to implement a testing programme, looking for a list of banned drugs, with suspensions or bans being placed on participants who test positive for banned substances.

Violence

Violence in sports involves crossing the line between fair competition and intentional aggressive violence. Athletes, coaches, fans, and parents sometimes unleash violent behaviour on people or property, in misguided shows of loyalty, dominance, anger, or celebration. Rioting or hooliganism by fans in particular is a problem at some national and international sporting contests.

This time there was no Serena Williams, and the umpire was returned to a supporting role. But many still would have faltered after seeing three championship points saved, and being dragged into a deciding set in the Australian Open final. "I'm not sure if it's feeling grown up, or being able to dissociate my feelings," Osaka said after Saturday's  7-6 (7-2) 5-7 6-4 victory  over Czech Petra Kvitova. "You know how some people get worked up about things? That's a very human thing to do. Sometimes I feel like I don't want to waste my energy doing stuff like that. "In
