WAKO and WAKO Europe are a long term partners of International Fair Play Organization and are strongly committed to the principles of fair play.

In order to promote the values represented by fair play, the WAKO Europe aims to influence the behavior, methods, and social and ethical role of athletes and athletes entourage: coaches, sports managers, parents, medical personnel, physical education teachers, sports organizations, referees and judges, the public in general and especially sports fans, the media, partners and sponsors.

THE FAIR PLAY VALUES:

  • Fair competition
    Triumph must be measured by absolute fair means, honesty and just play.
  • Respect
    Fair play requires unconditional respect for opponents, fellow players, referees and fans.
  • Friendship
    Rivalry on the field does not exclude friendship.
  • Team Spirit
    Individuals can be strong on their own, but they are much stronger in a team. Sharing the moment of victory with your team is the ultimate pleasure.
  • Equality
    Competing on equal terms is essential in sport. Otherwise, performance cannot be measured properly.
  • Integrity
    Being honest and having strong moral principles are essential to fair play. Practicing sport within a sound ethical framework is vitally important if you aim to be a true champion.
  • Solidarity
    It is important to support each other and share feelings, aims and dreams. Mutual support brings mutual success on and off the field.
  • Tolerance
    The willingness to accept behavior or decisions you may not agree with develops your self-control. Ultimately, that could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing.
  • Care
    True champions care about each other, as they are well aware that they could not be where they are without having been cared for by others.
  • Excellence
    Sport engages us in a collective effort to pursue human excellence.
  • Joy
    Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the modern Olympic Games, said: “The important thing in life is not the triumph, but the fight. The essential thing is not to have won, but to have fought well.” Competition can be intense, but you should always first look for joy when practicing any sports.
