The same year the Government of the Republic of Estonia signed the Copenhagen Declaration, by which Estonia undertook to follow the Code. The Estonian Anti-Doping Rules (hereinafter also the Rules) were drawn up on the basis of the Code. The Rules approved by the Estonian Olympic Committee (hereinafter the EOC) and the Estonian Anti-Doping Agency (hereinafter the ESTCIS) entered into force on 1 January 2010. In 2012 and 2015 the Rules were amended, and a new wording thereof was approved with effect correspondingly from 26 April 2012 and 1 January 2015. As a result of extensive amendments to the Code that were adopted in 2021 and that entered into force on 1 January 2021, this wording of the Rules was approved with effect from 1 January 2021. These Anti-Doping Rules are adopted and implemented in accordance with ESTCIS's responsibilities under the Code, and in furtherance of ESTCIS's continuing efforts to eradicate doping in sport in Estonia. These Anti-Doping Rules are sport rules governing the conditions under which sport is played. Aimed at enforcing anti-doping rules in a global and harmonized manner, they are distinct in nature from criminal and civil laws. They are not intended to be subject to or limited by any national requirements and legal standards applicable to criminal or civil proceedings, although they are intended to be applied in a manner which respects the principles of proportionality and human rights. When reviewing the facts and the law of a given case, all courts, arbitral tribunals and other adjudicating bodies should be aware of and respect the distinct nature of these Anti-Doping Rules, which implement the Code, and the fact that these rules represent the consensus of a broad spectrum of stakeholders around the world as to what is necessary to protect and ensure fair sport. As provided in the Code, ESTCIS shall be responsible for conducting all aspects of Doping Control. Any aspect of Doping Control or anti-doping Education may be delegated by ESTCIS to a Delegated Third Party, however, ESTCIS shall require the Delegated Third Party to perform such aspects in compliance with the Code, International Standards, and these Anti-Doping Rules. ESTCIS shall always remain fully responsible for ensuring that any delegated aspects are performed in compliance with the Code. ESTCIS may delegate its adjudication responsibilities and Results Management to the CAS Anti-Doping Division. When participating in sports, compliance with the Code and the Rules is equivalent to adherence to competition rules. The agreement of the Participants to them is a condition for taking part in sports. The Anti-Doping Rules protect the fundamental right of Athletes – to be a party to clean sport. Italicized terms in these Anti-Doping Rules are defined terms in Appendix 1. Unless otherwise specified, references to Articles are references to Articles of these Anti-Doping Rules. Fundamental Rationale for the Code and ESTCIS’s Anti-Doping Rules Anti-doping programs are founded on the intrinsic value of sport. This intrinsic value is often referred to as "the spirit of sport": the ethical pursuit of human excellence through the dedicated perfection of each Athlete’s natural talents. 2021 ESTCIS Rules Page 3 of 76 Anti-doping programs seek to protect the health of Athletes and to provide the opportunity for Athletes to pursue human excellence without the Use of Prohibited Substances and Prohibited Methods. Anti-doping programs seek to maintain the integrity of sport in terms of respect for rules, other competitors, fair competition, a level playing field, and the value of clean sport to the world. The spirit of sport is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind. It is the essence of Olympism and is reflected in the values we find in and through sport, including: • Health • Ethics, fair play and honesty • Athletes’ rights as set forth in the Code • Excellence in performance • Character and Education • Fun and joy • Teamwork • Dedication and commitment • Respect for rules and laws • Respect for self and other Participants • Courage • Community and solidarity The spirit of sport is expressed in how we play true. Doping is fundamentally contrary to the spirit of sport. The National Anti-Doping Program EADA was established by Estonian Olympic Committee (EOC) in 2007. In 2019, EOC established Estonian Center for Integrity in Sports (ESTCIS), including the objective of acting as the National Anti-Doping Organization for Estonia. As such, and in accordance with Article 20.5.1 of the Code, ESTCIS notably has the necessary authority and responsibility to be independent in its operational decisions and activities from sport and government. Without limitation, this includes the prohibition of any involvement in its operational decisions or activities by any Person who is at the same time involved in the management or operations of any International Federation, National Federation, Major Event Organization, National Olympic Committee, National Paralympic Committee, or government department with responsibility for sport or anti-doping. Scope of these Anti-Doping Rules These Anti-Doping Rules shall apply to: (a) ESTCIS including its board members, directors, officers and specified employees, and Delegated Third Parties and their employees, who are involved in any aspect of Doping Control; (b) National Federations of Estonia, including their board members, directors, officers and specified employees, and Delegated Third Parties and their employees, who are involved in any aspect of Doping Control; (c) the following Athletes, Athlete Support Personnel and other Persons (including Protected Persons), in each case, whether or not such Person is a national or resident of Estonia (i) all Athletes and Athlete Support Personnel who are members or license-holders of any National Federation in Estonia, or of any member or affiliate organization of any National Federation in Estonia (including any clubs, teams, associations, or leagues); 2021 ESTCIS Rules

  • Centrally Manageable System for Public Sector Sports Grant's
    Centrally Manageable System for Public Sector Sports Grant’s Distribution to Children and Youth Sport Clubs Abstract Research questions: What kind of system would be the best for financing children and youth sport (CYS)? Research methods: As a first step, we identify the most relevant aspects that have or may have influence on the unavoidable costs of sports. Secondly, we investigate less studied aspects like the costs of sports per practitioner and families’ ability to cover these costs, relaying on the data from 947 annual financial reports of CYS clubs from 2012 – 2016 and data about private persons’ annual income by quintiles from Statistics Estonia. Thirdly, by relying on the results of this study and previous studies, we propose a model for CYS financing. Results and findings: The quality and capacity of trainings for children determine the extent and height of entire sports pyramid. Results of previous research and findings of this study suggest that the centrally manageable system that takes into account impact of resource dependency and population density, costs of sports and sport levels and also income level and structure of families is the best possible solution for CYS financing. Implications: The proposed model guarantees efficient and targeted distribution of public grants, balanced financing of CYS, and reduces exclusion from sport due to financial and demographic reasons. However, a survey for identifying the needs of sports should be carried out before implementing sych a distribution system. For keeping grants’ distribution fair, the survey is recommended to repeat periodically. Keywords: Children and youth sport, sport financing, supports’ distribution, Estonia Introduction Several EU and world level recommendations suggest for children to be physically active at least one hour every day (WHO, 2010; EU, 2008).

  • The History of Youth Work in Estonia 18
    The history of youth work in by Marti Taru, Eli Pilve and Peeter Kaasik Estonia Introduction he main goal of this chapter is to Tchart briefly the most important moments in the development of youth work in Estonia, from the middle of the 19th century to the present day. As we move across the years we shall see how youth work transformed from voluntary and spontaneous activity to a state- controlled tool for ideological condi- tioning, and then to providing young people with the opportunity to acquire various (life) skills and competences. Estonian history of the last 150 years can be divided into five fairly distinct periods, all of which have witnessed developments in the field of youth work: • the national awakening before national independence, 1860s to 1918: prehis- tory of youth work; • the democratic period of the first inde- pendence, 1918 to 1940: the beginning of organised youth work within the edu- cation system, the authoritarian period of the first independence and emergence of state-controlled youth work; • the beginning of Soviet occupation, the Second World War and youth work under the German occupation, 1942 4 to 1944; 16 • the Soviet occupation, 1945 to 1989: explosive increase in youth work opportunities as a tool for ideological socialisation; • the restoration of independence and independent statehood, 1990 onwards: youth work as developmental experience, and contemporary methods of youth work. The prehistory of youth work: national awakening and civic activism The second half of the 19th century, during which time Estonia was a part of the Russian Empire with local government run by a nobility of German background, witnessed the rise of Estonian societies, which were founded all over the coun- try.
