Today the ISSF Executive Committee unanimously took the decisions to move (i) the ISSF World Championship All Events in Russia from August 2022 to 2023 and (ii) the separate ISSF World Championships in Rifle/Pistole and Shotgun originally scheduled to take place in 2023 to 2022 (which would both take place outside of Russia).
This decision was taken in view of the obligations established by the CAS Award 2020/O/6689 «WADA vs. RUSADA» with the aim to support WADA with the enforcement of this CAS Award. At the same time the decision safeguards the possibility for all our athletes as well as the Member Federations to win medals and quota places for Paris 2024 Olympic Games at all 2022-2023 ISSF World Championships.
