Aprobado en Asamblea Ordinaria de Cricket Espa�a el 23 de enero de 2010

Introducci�n

El Consejo de Ministros del Consejo de Europa, en fecha 24 de septiembre de 1992, aprob� un C�digo de �tica Deportiva, para que los Estados Miembros y las federaciones deportivas de los mismos lo tuvieran en consideraci�n.

Posteriormente, en el mes de octubre de 2004, los Ministros de Deporte de los Estados Miembros del Consejo de Europa aprobaron unos principios de buen gobierno, habida cuenta del importante papel del deporte dentro de la sociedad moderna y en el deseo de ser el espejo de pulcritud en que puedan mirarse los millones de j�venes que practican deporte.

En el �mbito del deporte espa�ol, el Consejo Superior de Deportes, en fecha 18 de octubre de 2004, aprob� una Resoluci�n que lleva como anexo un �C�digo de Buen Gobierno de las Federaciones Deportivas Espa�olas�, siguiendo las normas anteriormente citadas.

Cricket Espa�a aprueba el C�digo de Buen Gobierno, que regula internamente sus actividades cotidianas y permite que el mundo exterior vea c�mo el cricket no solo se autorregula sino que, adem�s, recoge todos los principios legales europeos y espa�oles establecidos en orden a alcanzar una transparencia y �tica que, en ocasiones, se ha echado en falta por algunos estratos sociales.

La elaboraci�n de este C�digo de Buen Gobierno ayuda a alcanzar una mayor integraci�n de la organizaci�n federativa en la sociedad, y aumentar la transparencia sobre su actuaci�n y, en particular, sobre la gesti�n del dinero p�blico que recibe.

Cricket Espa�a, en el ejercicio de las funciones que le son propias, y reconocidas en sus propios Estatutos, y con el �nimo de establecer principios y reglas orientadoras de su gesti�n, y de promover una mayor responsabilidad y eficacia en la gesti�n federativa, estima conveniente la elaboraci�n e implantaci�n de normas dirigidas a regular de forma sistem�tica y ordenada el gobierno federativo, y a actuar como un instrumento eficaz y necesario que contribuyan a una mayor transparencia en su gesti�n.

De esta manera, Cricket Espa�a asume el compromiso planteado mediante la redacci�n y aprobaci�n del presente C�digo: 

�mbito subjetivo.

El presente C�digo ser� de aplicaci�n a Cricket Espa�a y podr� ser asumido y adaptado a cualquier entidad deportiva que voluntariamente desee suscribirlo en aras a alcanzar los fines pretendidos.
