Rules To Adhere To When Updating Athletic Blog Posts

By Douglas Butler


During the early days, athletes were not supposed to update their Olympic blog posts. This is because the committee was afraid to release the live updates. Therefore ones who do this were penalized since they had gone over the rules and break them to post the proceedings in the field. This was not possible till Olympics which were held in Beijing china in 2008. This was because the Olympic committee was afraid of athletes releasing sensitive information about the task to the public hence the ones did this were penalized. Therefore athletic blog was supposed to be kept private.

Today, it is possible to do this by following rules which guides on the content one can release and the ones which must remain confidential. For instance, the confinement of the content is solely entitled to athlete experience. The other rule is that you are not allowed to post any audio or video content concerning ongoing competitions.

The athlete is not allowed to disclose their agreements with their sponsors in order to retain the confidentiality of the matter. Therefore if you are caught doing this, you will be liable to your own mistakes. Therefore you will receive a penalty depending on the number of times you have been participating in Olympics.

Blog posts should adhere to every rule and make sure the spirit of athletics is respected at all times. In this case, the international committee of Olympics has the right to demand the person who posted something outside their rules on their websites to remove them in case they did not agree to the posting of such material to the internet.

Everything was considered during the time the committee set these regulations to guide the athletes materials they put in public knowledge. This is because if people started to give their opinions during the event the athlete happens to see it, it will have an impact on person but they considered all possibilities of negative attitude towards the party involved in the content.

If the information was out during performance in the previous part you participated, the people will start commenting where others will be [positive while others negative about the performance. This will affect the next performance since the discouragements from the web is too much for the athlete. Therefore there is some information which is supposed to remain confidential in protection of the people participating.

There information on deals made between the sponsors and the athletes are supposed to remain confidential until the time in which session closes. This allows the information to remain confidential and the people outside the field are not able to comment in which might compromise the ability of the athlete to win the race. Therefore no one even the athlete should post this blog on the internet before the time is done.

Nowadays, it is possible to have all the streaming from the internet on the competitions on the ground and not have to wait to the end of the game for the video to be released. Following the event is more encouraging since you will be able to see the activities and the energy your loved ones are making in the field.
