Sport Integrity
En bref
Sport Integrity protects the credibility of petanque competition by continuously monitoring results for unusual patterns, taking confidential tip-offs through an anonymous channel, verifying equipment homologation at events, and managing investigations with the discipline and audit rigour expected by international integrity bodies. Every flag, report and sanction is captured in a tamper-evident trail so decisions can be defended at any future appeal or regulatory review.
Comment ça fonctionne
Result data flowing in from competitions is continuously scanned for statistical anomalies: improbable score sequences, late surges that match betting markets, repeated head-to-head outcomes between the same pairings, or sudden form reversals at decisive moments. Suspicious patterns are flagged for review by a small group of integrity officers and never auto-published.
In parallel, an anonymous reporting channel lets players, officials, families and sponsors raise concerns about match-fixing, undue influence or corrupt approaches. Reports are encrypted, given a reference token, and routed only to the integrity team. The reporter can return with the token to add information or read updates without ever revealing identity.
When a flag or report becomes a case, the investigation case management module takes over. It captures the case timeline, evidence files, statements from involved parties, interview notes and decisions, with strict access control: only assigned investigators see the file. Where regulators or betting integrity bodies are involved, the platform supports structured information sharing under a clear legal basis.
Equipment integrity is the second pillar. Officials at events can scan boules and target jacks with a QR check that verifies homologation against the manufacturer registry. Non-compliant or tampered equipment can be confiscated; the confiscation is logged with photos, owner, lane and umpire signature, and the equipment follows a chain-of-custody until destroyed or returned. Every integrity action — flag, report, decision, sanction — is written to a tamper-evident audit trail.

En pratique
An integrity analyst opens the morning queue and sees three flagged matches from a national championship: the same triplet has lost five qualifying rounds by exactly thirteen-to-nothing. She opens an investigation, marks it confidential, and pulls in a colleague. They review video, interview the umpires, and request statements through the platform — the players see only that an enquiry is open, not who reported what.
Meanwhile a tip arrives via the anonymous channel describing a betting approach in the same regional circuit. The case is merged. Two weeks later a sanction is recorded, the rationale is documented, the affected results are voided in the rankings module, and the audit trail will hold up at any future appeal.
