	International Association of Athletics Federations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) is the international governing body for the sport of athletics (known in the US as "track and field").
		Beginning in 1982, the IAAF has passed several amendments to its rules allowing athletes to receive compensation for participation in international athletics competitions.
		However, the IAAF retained the word "amateur" in its name until its 2001 Congress at which the IAAF's title was changed to its current form.

		She was cleared by the Jamaican Athletics Federation but the IAAF, athletics' governing body, was not satisfied with the decision and decided to refer the case to its arbitration panel.

		Athletics were included for women in the 1932 and 1936 Olympic Games, and the 1934 International Women’s Games held in London.

		At the IAAF council meeting in Nairobi during April 2002, it was announced that the 10th World Athletics Championships would be held in Helsinki, Finland.
		In April 2000 the IAAF accepted London’s bid to host the 2005 IAAF World Championships, an event considered to be the most important international sports event in the UK since the 1966 World Cup and one of the top three sports events on the international calendar.
		The IAAF rejected the Government’s offer at the end of October 2001, indicating that it had accepted a bid from London, not Britain and would re-open the bidding process to other potential host cities around the world.

		The athletic federation threshold for determining what is known as "doping" in sports does not take into account females' bodies, Slaney said.
		The use of the test on female athletes "is a sham, designed to protect their commercial interests by convincing the public that they are tough on drugs, at the expense of innocent athletes," Slaney said in her appeal.
