The French Olympic Committee (CNOSF) has announced its list of candidates for the post of President. The two candidates are Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, former French Minister of Sports (2022-24) and Director General of the French Tennis Federation (FFT) (2021-22), and Didier Séminet, President of the French Baseball/Softball Federation (FFBS).
The election will occur at the CNOSF General Assembly on June 19.
The call for applications opened on March 21, after the resignation of David Lappartient, and candidates were allowed to submit their application until April 20. Lappartient is the current President of the UCI, the world governing body for sports cycling, and was himself a candidate in the recent election for the presidency of the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
