INTERPOL Integrity in Sport Bi-Weekly Bulletin 19 March 2019 - 1 April 2019 INVESTIGATIONS France Net Widens in Tennis Match-Fixing Racket Probe, 137 Players Under Suspicion Seven French tennis players were detained by French police this week under suspicion of throwing games at the behest of a match-fixing mastermind, known to players as “The Maestro.” The Maestro is Armenian Grigor Sargsyan who was arrested by Belgian police late June and remains in custody. He is accused of fronting a massive gambling syndicate that targeted players in the lower echelons of professional tennis and convinced dozens to fix hundreds of games for cash. French sports daily L’Equipe reports that the seven players detained and questioned this week brings the total from the country to 17. While the seven have not been identified, authorities said five had admitted accepting money from the syndicate to throw matches. One said he had fixed over 20, receiving around $34,000 in return. Belgian police, who are leading the investigation, have said they now suspect 137 players from more than half a dozen countries, including the US, after pouring over phone records linked to the Maestro, and have requested assistance from the FBI. The scheme was organized via encrypted messaging and players are believed to have been paid between $570 and $3,400 to throw matches.

SOLVE IT SQUAD CLUBHOUSE - DAY 1 The SQUAD is jammed into the old Solve It Squad HQ, a treehouse adorned with maps, drawings, and memorabilia from their childhood exploits. It's way too small for four adults in their thirties. KEITH, a delusional bro who likely peaked in high school, attempts to take charge. KEITH Alright, Squad! Let’s get to work.

    Comparative Analysis of Effectiveness of Conventional Proprioceptive Training and Multistation Proprioceptive Training on Vertical Jump Performance in Indian Basketball Players- Gaurav, S. et al Comparative Analysis of Effectiveness of Conventional Proprioceptive Training and Multistation Proprioceptive Training on Vertical Jump Performance in Indian Basketball Players Gaurav1, S., Pooja2, A., Shishir3, N., Tanvi4, A. 1Consultant Physiotherapist, Institute of Brain and Spine, Sunflag Hospital. Faridabad, Haryana 2Assistant professor, Manav Rachna International University. Faridabad,Haryana 3Assistant professor, Manav Rachna International Universit, Faridabad, Haryana 4Assistant professor, Santosh Medical College. Ghaziabad Abstract The purpose of the study is to investigate whether conventional (wobble board) proprioceptive training or multi-station proprioceptive training is an effective way to improve vertical jump performance. The research study included 30 basketball players divided into the two groups, Group A (n = 15) and Group B (n = 15). The group A underwent the wobble board proprioceptive training program lasting for four weeks. The group B was administered the multi- station proprioceptive training program lasting for four weeks. Both the training programs consisted of one-leg and double-leg static and dynamic balance drills. The demands and duration of those exercises increased progressively. The vertical jump height was estimated by Sergeant Jump Test at the beginning, after second week and at the end of the experiment. The results of this study indicate that Multi-station training showed greater improvements as compared to the conventional balance training and the results were significant at p<0.01. Multi-station training consisted of gradually progressive activities on exercise mats, wobble boards, mini trampoline, thera – band and walking on uneven surface while the conventional training consisted of training on wobble boards.
