“We have a system that is not functioning sufficiently.” That is what Pieke de Zwart, general manager of the Athletics Union, says about the (sports) judiciary in the Netherlands. He comes out in response to an interview in the Runner’s World magazine with athlete Zoë Sedney. In 2023 she was a victim of sexual cross -border behavior. De Zwart talks about the complexity in the triangle between the union, the police and the Institute for Sports Law (ISR). And about things that did not go well within his organization.
