The International Fair Play Committee (CIFP), in partnership with the International Olympic Committee (IOC), is pleased to announce the Fair Play Award for the Olympic Games Paris 2024. This award celebrates remarkable displays of sportsmanship during the event.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the inaugural Fair Play Award, which was presented to Italy's Eugenio Monti at the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck. The CIFP, founded in Paris by the renowned French tennis player Jean Borotra, shares a special connection with the Paris 2024 Games.
Nominations for the Paris 2024 Fair Play Award are now open to all. National Olympic Committees, International Federations, athletes, coaches, and the general public are invited to submit their nominations via a dedicated CIFP email (paris@fairplayinternational.org) or through the social media platforms listed below.
Once nominations are collected, a jury consisting of CIFP and IOC representatives, athletes, and media members will create a shortlist of nominees. The public will then have the chance to vote for the winners, who will be announced shortly after the conclusion of the Paris Games.
"There is no sport without fair play. We are delighted to collaborate with the IOC on this important award. I encourage everyone involved in the Olympic Movement to nominate exceptional acts of sportsmanship," said Dr Jeno Kamuti, CIFP President.
“I welcome and fully sport the continued efforts of the International Fair Play Committee to promote one of the truest values of the Olympic Movement, fair play. I am looking forward to seeing many heart-warming nominations and expect a tough competition for ‘gold’,” said Emma Terho, Chair of the IOC Athletes’ Commission.
"The CIFP was founded by Frenchman Jean Borotra, and the first-ever Fair Play Award was presented 60 years ago to Eugenio Monti," said Sunil Sabharwal, CIFP Secretary General while adding, "It's fitting that we are celebrating this award at this time, in this place.”
