Mediators are typically called on to mediate disputes between governing bodies, clubs, coaches, players, parents and sponsors.  

International Panel of Arbitrators

Sport Resolutions acts as Secretariat for a number of International Federations and administers various disciplinary, regulatory and other tribunals on behalf of those Federations. The International Panel of Arbitrators- Legal Member List (The “International Panel”) provides an internationally diverse panel maintained to identify and appoint suitable individuals with the requisite experience to chair or lead anti-doping, safeguarding, disciplinary, athlete selection, eligibility and other regulatory hearings or tribunals pursuant to the rules and procedures of any referring International Federation.

In addition to arbitrators and mediators, the Sport Resolutions' Panel includes individuals with a range of other skills and professions such as doctors, scientists, psychologists, pharmacologists, former police officers, social workers, accountants, HR professionals, magistrates and ex-athletes, which allows us to tailor the expertise to the actual case rather than rely solely on legally qualified members.
