Paris-Fenerbahce postponement. What the EuroLeague Bylaws say

Yesterday EuroLeague Basketball postponed the match between Paris and Fenerbahce

Yesterday EuroLeague Basketball postponed the match between Paris and Fenerbahce due to «the impossibility of Paris Basketball to have a minimum of eight players included on the Authorization List and fit to play due to injury or illness». The Turkish club contested the decision today.

But what do the EuroLeague regulations, signed by all clubs, say about how Fenerbahce is among the shareholders?

Chapter 5 entitled ‘Calendar, Dates Times of the Games’, Article 21(10): «A game may only be suspended when, due to injury or illness, the club does not have a minimum of eight of the players included on the Authorisation List and fit to play prior to the tip-off of the game».

And: «The Company may require or make any ascertainment it deems suitable concerning the diagnosis of the injuries or illnesses».
