Sports watchdogs gather
A small and informal start that could lead
to bigger things...
July 2, 2004
The industry was watching with interest this week an informal gathering
planned by leading sports betting "watchdog" portals amid
speculation that a small beginning could lead to a more cohesive
approach on other sports disputes.
Useful player-protection synergy could develop from the collaboration
later this month when representatives of Sports911.com, Majorwager.com,
newcomer TheOffshoreWire and TheRx.com gather.
Top of the agenda will be player protection with a special focus
on the situation with troubled BetPanAm and how each respective
site can work to steer other companies from obtaining a license
there as long as the current owners maintain the master license.
Sports911 spokesman Chris Costigan said that "....the
goal is to ensure not a single penny from online gambling gets into
their hands until all BetPanAm players are paid in full."
