International Sports Federations and Their Place in the System of Subjects of Law
( Pp. 84-88)

The purpose of the study. The article is devoted to the legal status of international sports federations that carry out the functions of organizing a particular sport, as well as the problem of determining their place in the system of subjects of law. The dialectic of including international federations among the components of the Olympic Movement is obvious only at first glance, since this also emphasizes their autonomy, which does not allow mixing the IOC itself and sports federations, the nature of which is even more connected with those patterns, traditions, customs of specific territories and nationalities that once gave rise to the corresponding species sports. The content of the regulatory provisions of sports federations can be conditionally divided into a) introduced in the form of mandatory borrowing and b) related to the exclusive normative creativity of the federation itself (however, some other persons may be initiators (interested parties)). From the point of view of the regulatory effect, the provisions of federations can be divided into a) acting directly and b) requiring some kind of adaptation. Conclusions. International sports federations, on the one hand, form part of the unified Olympic movement, and, on the other, are clearly identified as a special body of organizations responsible for regulatory activities in specific sports. The main function of international sports federations, which ensures legal self-organization in the relevant sport, contributes to the preservation of ethno-cultural values. In this context, it is appropriate to return to the thoroughness of granting the all-Russian sports federations the right to independently approve the relevant rules of sports.
