Professional sport has been estimated to be a $213 billion industry. Professional sport rests on the assumption that athletes are competing against one another on an equal footing.

Some believe that leagues, associations, and unions regulate sport to the extent that athletes are limited in expressing their personality to the public. Being able to show their personality often is important to securing sponsorships and other advertising deals.

The Vorster regime began openly to interfere in sports. It issued a Proclamation in February 1965, under the "Group Areas Act", prohibiting any mixed sports or even mixed audiences, except by permit. (Until then, segregation in sport was by "custom", not law).

The celebrity media landscape seems to apply to the sports world. The gossip column part of Sports Illustrated gets more popular almost every week.
t
The imposition of apartheid in sport means in effect that no 'mixed' sport is permitted under the aegis of the official organisations which are accorded international recognition and bear the responsibility for selecting representative teams for international competitions. There are no open trials to permit the selection of the best sportsmen in each class from the entire sporting community. Instead, competition is limited to whites only and it is from them that national teams are selected. This situation was well-known to all the international sports bodies which granted unqualified recognition to the racialist, official organisations in South Africa. Just as the South African white sports bodies are responsible for enforcing racial discrimination in domestic sport, so the international bodies which granted them membership are responsible for bestowing respectability upon such practices.

Using artificial substances in sport has been around a long time. The first evidence of doping can be traced back to the ancient Olympic Games. There is evidence that competitors were willing to take performance enhancing substances, such as mushrooms and plant extracts.

When Palestinian terrorists seized and then killed eleven Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympic Games, they explained their choice of venue with what was in many ways an astute assessment: We recognize that sport is the religion of the western world.... So we decided to use the Olympics, the most sacred ceremony of this religion, to make the world pay attention to us.

When a sports organization finds that a violation of important values such as fairness and honesty in officiating occurred, then the consequences must be swift and severe. Leaders cannot show tolerance for deception.
