“…Therefore, we fully support the position regarding the need to develop a unified system of combating corruption and bribery in the sport industry, in particular, in sports management, and creating a unified theoretical system in this area (Philippou, 2019). This will contribute to over-coming unsportsmanlike behaviour during sports events and during preparation for their holding (for example, when choosing a venue for a competition) by developing a programme specifying specific events (Hall et al, 2021) and establishing unified sanctions for committing such crimes (Ifeanyichukwu & Dennis, 2017). The development of complex measures to combat corruption crimes in the sport industry (Szwajdler, 2016) both at the level of criminal legislation and at the level of special regulatory acts will contribute to improving the reputation of leading sports organizations.…”

“…Figure 3. The main directions of the programme for promoting integrity in the field of the sports organizations management (Hall & Masters, 2021) It has already been repeatedly stated that corruption and bribery in the field of the sports organizations management is an international problem that can be solved by joint efforts of states only, which focus their policies, in particular, on overcoming this socially dangerous phe-nomenon.

The problem of corruption in the management of sports organizations has long since ceased to have an exclusively national character, becoming a global problem, particularly at the level of federal and international sports organizations. It is possible to state a specific limitation in studying problematic issues of criminal responsibility for corruption crimes in sports and the insufficiency of the development of certain aspects of establishing accountability for the specified offenses.This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of criminal legal measures in the form of criminal liability in the fight against corruption crimes in the management of sports organizations. The following methods were used in this study: information-analytical method; system approach method; method of comparison and comparison; method of descriptive analysis; method of pragmatic approach; forecasting method. According to the research results, the author's concept of corruption in the management of sports organizations was proposed. It has been established that criminal liability for corruption crimes in the field of management of sports organizations is an effective but insufficient measure to combat this phenomenon. This is evidenced by scientific studies of the last 5 years regarding the fight against match-fixing in certain types of sports in certain countries, which indicates the insufficient effectiveness of establishing criminal liability for corruption crimes in the management of sports organizations. There was a need to develop new, more effective measures to prevent and combat corruption crimes in the field of sports management. At the international level, it is necessary to create the Instruction on tackling corruption in the management of sports organizations, which will include measures and directions for combating and preventing corruption in sports, including improving criminal liability for these crimes. This study opens up the prospects for further research in the fight against corruption in the field of sports, in particular, ensuring control over the activities of national and international sports organizations by improving both the legislative framework and the practical implementation of its provisions in the field of regulation and management in the sports field. Keywords: Corruption crimes, bribery, criminal legislation, sport management, match-fixing, doping, tricks.
