In this award, the Court of Arbitration for Sport dismissed the appeal of Maclean Cortez Letshwiti on grounds of inadmissibility. The Panel held that the CAF Governance Committee’s recommendation regarding the Appellant’s ineligibility did not constitute an appealable decision, as only the CAF Executive Committee (COMEX) had the authority to adopt binding decisions on candidacies. Since the Appellant did not appeal the COMEX’s resolution, the CAS declared the appeal inadmissible.
