Who is responsible for making decisions regarding sanctions outlined in specific articles related to player transfers?

The Secretary General plays a crucial role in overseeing the operations and governance of FIBA, which includes the enforcement of regulations regarding player transfers. This includes making decisions on sanctions specified in the articles of FIBA's regulations. The Secretary General is tasked with ensuring that all protocols are adhered to and that any violations related to player transfers are addressed appropriately. By having a centralized authority responsible for these decisions, it helps maintain consistency and fairness in the process.

The other entities mentioned, such as national member federations or the FIBA Congress, have broader oversight or legislative responsibilities rather than the direct authority to impose sanctions on player transfers. While a player’s club may report issues or concerns, it does not hold the decision-making power regarding sanctions. This clarity in roles is essential for maintaining order and compliance within the sport.
