Abstract
Abstract
Sports forensic is a very niche segment of knowledge and activity encompassing sports, audit, legislation, chemistry and police investigation. The purpose of this article is to have a transdisciplinary approach encompassing on one hand academic frameworks of analysis and on the other qualified judgement of professional bodies and authorities. Outside its law enforcement capacity, evidence gathered by police in an attempt to find non-coercive solutions, can serve as advancements in the field of sports. The perspective of this article is an education one, identifying causes, effects as well as providing insights for prevention and anti-corruption programmes. Also, organisational risks are zoomed-in via annual reports and their subsequent non-financial reporting. Mapping out and better understanding scale and stimuli of corruption in sports while acting can play a disruptive role in other criminal activities. International cooperation and identifying best practices are a key aspect in guiding whistle-blowers as well as making sports forensic a more established filed of research, for better competitions.
