		Sports arbitrations only exist because the athlete, the national governing body (“N.G.B.”), and others in the sport world have agreed to be bound by arbitration and the outcome of the case.
		The court stated that “unless the non-compliance with the nomination criteria was so substantial as to satisfy the Court that the decision could have been different then any such non-compliance should be regarded as inconsequential or immaterial and not provide a proper basis to overturn the selectors decision.”50 Accordingly, the CAS dismissed the appeal.
		The court emphasized that both fairness and finality are desirable objectives of arbitration and, that in the Perez application, the importance of fairness compelled the panel to hear the dispute.
