Among the decisions to be taken, the awarding of the World Fair Play awards. The nominations came from 19 countries world- wide, of these 12 were proposed by Panathlon International: France, Italy and Uruguay the Districts represented. With considerable satisfaction a good quality of nominations were taken into account/registered in all four award categories: Gesture, Career, Promotion and the Jacques Rogge Award dedicated to young people. The preliminary stage for nominations produced by the two Vice-Presidents respectively Mr. Nikolai Dolgopolov (RUS) and Mr. Maurizio Monego (I) has proven to be as always useful at introducing discussion issues. The resulting decisions were not easy due to the validity of the nominations/candidacies and the difficulty of comparing sport and circumstances widely differing from one another. Ultimately, we believe that the true spirit of Fair Play has emerged no matter what/regardless. This fact has led in assigning more than one award with the here below results: Categoria Pierre de Coubertin per il Gesto Awarded two Trophies and 3 Diplomas of Honour A Trophy was awarded to Norwegian Eiving Vold, canoe category athlete who sought doggedly the truth concerning his passing the marker and wasn’t sure of being fair.
