The Ombudsman Institution (KDK) has issued a recommendation regarding the use of protective sports eyewear in contact sports. This action follows an application by an athlete who was barred from entering the ring while wearing protective glasses. The KDK highlighted the need for established, transparent criteria to determine when such eyewear is permissible. By addressing this gap, the institution aims to ensure athletes' safety without compromising competition rules. The recommendation specifically targets contact sports branches where eyewear disputes may occur. This move seeks to standardize regulations to prevent similar exclusions in the future.
