OP-ED: Arbitration Court subtly rebukes the IAAF and spells out how Caster should fight on By Léa Clérets

. If I had to put it into a theatrical format, I would write a scene where an insurance company employee is telling you, without telling you, how to present your claim for it to be successful. And it gives a very stern reprimand and warning to the IAAF.

The Panel is mindful that, in considering these issues, it is not acting as a policymaker or regulator. It is neither necessary nor appropriate for the Panel to step into the shoes of the IAAF by deciding how it would have approached issues had it been charged with making policies or enacting rules itself

the validity of the IAAF’s Eligibility Regulations for the Female Classification — Athletes with Differences of Sex Development The panel is saying “think big”. Read point 19: So let me summarise. First, everyone agrees that we like the idea of a fair competition.

Re-think how to aim for fairness through categorisations which are other than a binary division of gender.
