Another International Federation looks set to keep its World Championships in Russia, despite the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ordering them to move major events due to be held before December 2022 out of the country.
The International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) is to inform the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) that it would be legally and practically impossible to move its 2022 World Championships from Russia, according to a draft document seen by
insidethegames.
It claims withdrawing the Championships from the scandal-hit nation could even endanger the existence of the ISSF .
The ISSF World Championships in all of its disciplines is due to be held in August 2022 at the Foxlodge complex in Ignatovo, owned by ISSF President Vladimir Lisin.
