In the context of sports organizations, "compliance" refers to the adherence to established rules, regulations, and standards set by governing bodies and internal policies. Compliance ensures that all members, including teams and personnel, operate within legal and ethical guidelines. This includes areas such as anti-doping laws, financial practices, and player conduct. Organizations work to foster a culture of compliance to protect their integrity, safeguard athletes' well-being, and maintain public trust in the sports they represent.
