Competing on home soil at an international multi-sport Games is a rare opportunity for any athlete, and it’s something I’ve dreamed of my entire athletic career. Next summer, for the first time, I will finally have the opportunity to compete with some of the best in the world, right here at home. There will be more than 6,000 athletes from 41 countries competing for a spot on the podium during 20 days of competition. I can tell you, Team Canada is already preparing so that when our moment comes, we’ll be ready.

The Pan Am Games have a special place in my heart. After winning silver for Canada at the Rio de Janeiro Games in 2007, I went on to win gold at the Guadalajara Games in 2011. Standing on the podium and hearing O Canada were incredibly emotional and proud moments for me. It is what athletes strive for, to live our dream and make our country proud. I can only imagine what it will be like to hear the roar of a passionate home crowd as well.

The success of previous Games held in Canada has shown athletes that the passion, cheers and support from the crowd can mean the difference between silver and gold. I know that all the athletes, especially Team Canada, are in for the experience of a lifetime, as are all of those who come out to cheer us on!

With 36 sports, including 52 disciplines, there’s something for everyone. I hope that all the athletes competing will be able to walk into the venues before their competition and see the stands filled with enthusiastic fans of all ages.

On behalf of all the athletes hoping to compete at the Games, we thank you for your support. It means the world to us to know that we have the country behind us and we look forward to having you cheer us on in the summer of 2015.

On July 10, 2015, millions will watch Canada welcome the nations of the Americas to the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games with the Opening Ceremony, a celebration of the sports and cultures of the Western Hemisphere. Canada’s internationally-renowned Cirque du Soleil will infuse the ceremony with its revolutionary stagecraft, acrobatics and pageantry as it delivers a one-time-only show. The theatrical and cultural elements of the Opening Ceremony will frame iconic moments such as the Parade of Nations and the lighting of the Games cauldron.

The Closing Ceremony on July 26, 2015, will feature music organized by Live Nation Entertainment and will include top Canadian and international musical acts. Always a party-like atmosphere, the Closing Ceremony will honour outstanding Games performances and the contributions of all Games partners, while handing the baton to Lima, Peru, the Host City of the 2019 Pan American Games.

Diving is one of the most-watched and acrobatic sports in the Games. Launching from the three-metre springboard or dropping from the 10-metre platform, divers plunge to the water with a dizzying combination of twists, somersaults and rotations in both pike (legs straight) and tuck (legs pulled close to the body) positions. Then the athletes break the surface of the pool with great speed and — ideally — a rip entry that almost eliminates the splash.

Spectators have the opportunity to watch both men and women compete in singles and synchronized pairs from both heights. The sheer number and variety of dives in the competition makes the newly constructed CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House the site of one of the most action-packed events at the Games.

It’s the ultimate challenge of swimmer versus distance as both men and women power through a 10-kilometre course with no pool, no walls to touch, no flip turns, just open water ahead and behind. This is the marathon of aquatics.

The race start is a colourful, noisy spectacle of churning water, arms and legs as the athletes fight for early position using the freestyle technique. As the line of swimmers stretches out, navigation becomes part of the challenge of the event as staying on the most efficient line from buoy to buoy conserves precious time and energy.

The pool often produces some of the most memorable performances and athletes of any Games. Each event and distance — breaststroke, butterfly, backstroke, freestyle and individual medley contested over 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 or 1,500 metres — produces a different experience for fans. Ferocity and grace. Endurance and speed.

Athletes will push for the podium in a brand-new competition venue — the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House — that is destined to become a springboard for future Canadian swimming superstars. Cheer individual swimmers through the heats and into the finals, and rise to your feet as athletes put forward their best four-person teams in the relay events.

Above the water, synchronized swimming is art, beauty, dance and precision. Below the surface, fiercely conditioned athletes perform remarkable feats of strength, timing, flexibility, balance and conditioning. In fact, even while performing perfectly choreographed acrobatics, synchronized swimmers will often spend the first minutes of their programs under water, working off the strength of a single breath.

Athletes compete to music as either duets or teams of eight. The judges provide marks for two routines — the technical and the free — against standards for execution, artistic impression, and difficulty. Canada and the United States have been dominant powerhouses in the sport of synchro, having placed in the medals at every Pan Am Games since 1971.

Water polo may seem a little like soccer played with hands in a pool, but this sport has a ferocious nature. Teams of seven athletes a side (six in the field, one goalie) contest four eight-minute quarters without touching the sides or bottom of the pool. The players’ strength and endurance is remarkable and on display perhaps most impressively during an eggbeater, a powerful leg-kick technique that can lift the athlete high out of the water to defend or attempt a shot on net.

The competitive nature of water polo is clear right from the start of each quarter when one player from each team engages in the sprint — the water polo equivalent of a full-speed faceoff — to gain first control of the ball.

Archery is a sport unique for the value it places on stillness. As a spectator, there is electricity in the moments of quiet and anticipation, followed by the breathtakingly accurate release of the arrow to targets 70 metres away. Across a range nearly as long as a football field, archers will hit bull’s-eyes just 12.2 centimetres in diameter.

While archery is an ancient sport, Pan Am archers use highly sophisticated equipment as they work through a qualification round before beginning the compelling one-on-one matches that determine the medallists and Games champion. The head-to-head duels in the final rounds are gripping, alternating-shot theatre in a sport where even a flicker of tension or distraction can be the margin between victory and defeat.

The quintessential test of athletic endurance, the marathon is one of the crowning events of any Games. World-class athletes will complete the 26.2-mile (42.2-kilometre) marathon course running at a pace that for most people would be a full-out sprint. This is no weekend jog. Being up close to the marathoners provides a true appreciation not just of the fitness that traditionally defines the race, but the impressive speed as well.

The name and distance of the race find their inspiration in the legend (untrue, as it turns out) of the Ancient Greek messenger Pheidippides who was said to have run the 26.2 miles from the town of Marathon to Athens to warn of a Persian invasion in 490 BC.

If you’re expecting a stroll, this is the wrong event. The athletes in race walk cover ground at a remarkable pace, but do so within the strict limitations of the sport’s rules. During the race, athletes must have one foot in contact with the ground at all times as well as keeping their supporting leg straight. They must hold this position from the time their foot first impacts the ground until the supporting leg passes below the body. To increase their pace while meeting this standard, athletes swivel and tilt their hips to lengthen their strides.

Throughout the 20-kilometre races for women and 20- and 50-kilometre races for men, officials line the course, watching every athlete for breaks in form. If a race walker loses contact with the ground at any point, he or she earns a red card. Three cards in one race results in disqualification.

No venue at the Games will offer the variety of iconic events that CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletics Stadium will offer during the track and field competitions. The track events feature distances from 100 metres to 10,000 metres, with the excitement of hurdles and the steeplechase as well. The field competitions include the throwing events of shot put, discus, javelin and hammer throw, while the jumping events offer pole vault, high jump, long jump and triple jump.

Track and field also includes, for men, the legendary decathlon (runs of 100 metres, 400 metres and 1,500 metres; 110-metre high hurdles; throws of javelin and discus; shot put; pole vault; high jump and long jump) and for women, the equally impressive heptathlon (100-metre hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200-metre run, long jump, javelin and 800-metre run).

Badminton athletes are among the fittest and most agile in any sport and badminton contested at this level often looks like a video playing in fast forward as the competitors flash side-to-side and forward-and-back to track a shuttlecock (also known as a birdie) that can reach speeds of 350 kilometres an hour. The sounds are rapid fire as racquet strings pop and shoes squeak through both singles and doubles play.

The newly constructed Atos Markham Pan Am/Parapan Am Centre provides a tremendous space for watching a sport that is lightning fast in every direction . . . including vertically, with a ceiling that allows shuttlecocks to travel more than 12 metres above the court. You will not recognize this competition as the same game you played in your elementary school gymnasium or your backyard.

A sporting passion throughout the Americas, baseball is sure to be a fan favourite and a magnet for some of the greatest displays of national pride. Pan Am Games baseball tournaments have long been a springboard for future big leaguers, so this is an opportunity to see stars on the rise as they compete in a sport that is legendary for its fan experience — the emerald green of the diamond, the crack of the bat, the snap of a fastball hitting a glove.

For the first time in Games history, women will compete in baseball; a competition that promises to be outstanding. The men’s competition guarantees to be action-packed from the first pitch of the Games to the final, with six of the top ten nations in the world coming from Pan American countries.

With the level of competition extremely high — the Americas account for approximately one third of the world’s top 30 basketball nations for both men and women — the athletes offer a highlight-making combination of size, speed, strength and skill.

Compared to the basketball North Americans usually watch at home, international-level basketball tends to feature more ball movement, player movement and well-spaced offenses. The games move fast and the action is non-stop. It’s also a great opportunity to see players on the cusp of stardom as past Pan Am Games have featured future basketball hall of famers.

World-class bowlers roll on the same 60-foot wood lanes you may know from league night, but these competitors — in men’s and women’s singles and doubles — will be striving for the medal podium and carrying the expectations of national pride. Pan Am bowling is a tenpin competition as individual bowlers and teams go head-to-head to move on to the medal rounds.

The spectator experience for Pan Am bowling is intimate and immediate with the sounds of the game — the thunder of the ball, the crash and ricochet of the pins — as much a part of being there as watching the competition progress frame by frame.

Often called the “sweet science,” boxing is one of the most storied sports in history, with the legendary Marquess of Queensberry rules effectively initiating boxing’s modern era in 1867. In 2015, spectators will have the chance to see tournament boxing at its best when athletes from traditional powerhouse nations like the United States and Cuba touch gloves in rapid-fire bouts of up to three three-minute rounds for men and four two-minute rounds for women. The single-elimination competition format and amateur scoring system reward speed, activity and precision, so the action is fast; there’s no time to rest and no place to hide in the ring.

Women compete in three weight classes — flyweight, lightweight and middleweight — while men battle across 10 classes from light flyweight to super heavyweight.

Canoe/kayak – slalom is as much about athletes competing against nature as it is about athletes competing against each other. Navigating the spectacular Minden Wild Water Preserve, both men and women will race downstream — and occasionally upstream — against rapids, rocks, drops and eddies as they try to beat the clock and their competitors.

At a venue widely regarded as one of the best whitewater runs anywhere in the world, kayakers (piloting closed-cockpit boats using double-bladed paddles) and canoeists (in open boats with single-bladed paddles) negotiate gates in a race against time, the competition, clean passes through the gates and, of course, the churning water. This will be the debut of canoe/kayak – slalom at the Pan Am Games, including the C-2 event for teams of two paddlers.

Over distances of 200, 500 and 1,000 metres, paddlers in both the canoe and kayak sprint events endure one of the most intense and gruelling sports at the Games. The Welland Pan Am Flatwater Centre provides fans with a great perspective on a kilometre of glassy water sliced by boats that edge forward and slip back from the competition with every stroke.

Women compete as singles, doubles and four-person teams in kayak and as singles in canoe. In addition to those configurations, men also compete in doubles canoe. The athletes kneel in the open canoe, paddling on one side of the boat with a single-bladed paddle. Kayakers compete from a seated position in closed boats with double-bladed paddles. The K-4 (four person) men’s kayaks can reach speeds capable of pulling a waterskier.

One of the defining disciplines of action sports, BMX is a chaotic combination of speed, wheeled agility and fearlessness that pits eight cyclists at a time in an all-out race to the finish on a purpose-built dirt track. Flying down slopes, banking through tight turns and catching air over jumps, the competitors constantly fight for the best lines of approach, making BMX one of the most combative of the cycling disciplines.

The start of a BMX race is one of the great split seconds of competition in the Games. The gate drops and every rider plunges toward the hole shot, trying to be the first rider through while the other seven competitors catch dust. There’s no shifting of gears and little opportunity to recover from even the smallest error. This is what action sports are all about.

The cross-country mountain bike event pushes riders to excel in a variety of skills. They need power and precision to race up steep climbs. They need control to navigate rocks, roots, berms, and banks throughout the trail. They also need endurance and the ability to push themselves to the limits of safety on dramatic downhill runs.

The riders start the race en masse, powering off the line almost in unison as the most ambitious riders fight to get ahead of the pack and set their own pace. While the course twists and turns into and out of variable terrain, the repeated loops of the course that constitute the race give spectators the opportunity to be up close to the competitors and get a tremendous sense of the action.

Road cycling is one of the world’s most-watched sports. The speed and power of the athletes, combined with the ability of spectators to watch the competition from an arm’s length away at times, make the experience of watching these cyclists unforgettable. Road cycling features two events — individual time trial and road race.

Competitors in the time trial (40 kilometres for men, 20 for women) leave the start one at a time at regular intervals. Each cyclist races against the clock and once the last competitor crosses the line, the best time wins. Road cycling puts the competitors on the road at the same time, with men riding a 160-kilometre course and women an 80-kilometre route. With everyone on the road at the same time, strategy, drafting, teamwork and risk play big parts in determining the medal winners.

Individual time trial is non-ticketed.

The 250-metre, steeply banked wooden track at the Cisco Milton Pan Am/Parapan Am Velodrome will host a full range of events that sends cyclists around the track on gearless, brakeless bikes reaching speeds of more than 80 kilometres an hour.

The sprint events include individual and team competitions in which, following a qualifying time trial, cyclists race one-on-one, often jostling for track position by coming to a complete stop to force the competitor into the disadvantageous front position. The keirin team event is also a sprint in the slipstream of a pace-setting motorbike. The team pursuit is an endurance event that puts two teams of four riders on the track at the same time and gives them four kilometres to catch or outpace the opposition. Finally, the omnium event unites six different race disciplines and distances, with the victory going to the rider with the best combined placing.

As the most artistic of the equestrian sports and, in many ways, the foundation of the other equestrian disciplines, dressage is a rising spectator sport that offers an unforgettably elegant and graceful aesthetic experience. Magnificent horses and their riders — in an event which sees men and women competing on an even playing field — take to a 60-metre by 20-metre arena where a panel of judges scores the work of the horse-and-rider pairs as they perform prescribed elements, including a walk, trot and canter according to a scripted pattern, and also a freestyle routine specifically choreographed by each competitor and performed to music.

Medals are awarded in both the individual competition and team competition at the newly upgraded Caledon Pan Am Equestrian Park in the heart of Ontario’s picturesque horse country.

Eventing is the equestrian equivalent of the decathlon, a multi-day, multi-discipline event that challenges the competitors’ diverse talents. The first day of eventing is dedicated to the balletic dressage competition at the Caledon Pan Am Equestrian Park. Day two welcomes the cross-country event, which brings the thunder of hoof beats to the hills, woods and trails of Mono, Ontario, where horses and riders will challenge a course of approximately five kilometres enhanced by more than 30 jumps, water features, drops and log jumps. Eventing concludes on the third day with the jumping event.

This is an opportunity to watch horses and riders pushed to the limits of their diverse abilities and a rare chance to see magnificent competition horses running in natural surroundings, unconfined by arena fences.

Equestrian jumping — besides being stunningly beautiful with its combination of brilliant horses and a competition arena featuring jumps that look like cultivated gardens — offers one of the most distinct sounds in sport. The quick, powerful strides leading into each jump, the silence as the horse and rider glide through the air, and the satisfying return of the horse’s hooves to the ground.

The jumping competition tests speed, skill, power and control as horses and riders attempt to establish a fast, “clean” (no jumps knocked down) ride through a course of approximately 15 fences in the arena of the Caledon Pan Am Equestrian Park. Men and women compete directly against each other for medals in both individual and team competitions.

The imagery and vocabulary of fencing are part of the vernacular: “thrust,” “parry,” “épée” and, of course, “on guard.” The experience of watching world-class fencing for the first time, however, exceeds all expectations. The athletes move with grace and power, with lightning-fast reflexes and the subtle shifts of defense and attack that define winners. The piste — the 2-metre by 14-metre competition ground — frames bouts with three types of swords: foil, épée and sabre.

Each sword provides different characteristics and each contest rewards different forms of attack. A hit with the foil counts only when the tip of the weapon makes contact with the opponent’s torso. The heavier épée can also score only with the tip of the sword, but hits to any part of the body count. The sabre targets the entire body above the waist, with both the weapon’s tip and edges capable of scoring hits.

To much of the world, hockey happens not on ice, but turf. Contested outdoors by two teams of 11 players on a pitch approximately the same size as an American football field, the players use short hooked sticks to pass, shoot and defend the sport’s hard ball. Because players can only contact the ball with one side — the flat side — of the stick, the skill in the flips, turns and twists of the stick are mind-boggling. Shots on net often come from forceful swings while the opposing players are in close contact, making this an exciting, action-filled sport.

The men’s and women’s games are equally compelling with fast ball movement, quick attacks, acrobatic defense and swarming player movement. The international standard of water-based turf fields provides a wetted playing surface that speeds up play and accentuates skill.

As a marquee sport contested in the brand-new CIBC Hamilton Pan Am Soccer Stadium, football is sure to offer intense competition, great spectacle and some avid displays of national pride from Canadians and visitors alike as eight men’s and eight women’s teams go for gold. This is, after all, the most popular sport on earth. With 10 of the top 30 men’s nations in the world and three of the top seven women’s nations coming from the Americas, the 2015 Pan Am Games football offers truly world-class skill and competition.

The women’s teams are open, meaning that every country can choose to send its best available players. The men’s competition, however, is an under-22 event that caps the age of the competitors, meaning that this will be a rare opportunity to see the next generation of world football stars close up.

Golfers will tee up in both men’s and women’s mixed team and individual competitions at the newly renovated south course at Angus Glen Golf Club, the prestigious location of the 2002 Canadian Open.

Spectators will be able to walk the course along with the players, getting up close with the power of every drive, the precision of every approach shot and the subtle breaks of every putt. Stay close enough to hear player and caddy talk strategy or find the perfect vantage point from which to watch the action unfold on three or four holes at once. The competition promises to be intense as approximately half of the 20 top men’s and women’s golfers on the amateur world-ranking are from the Americas.

Artistic gymnastics is a cornerstone event in any multi-sport Games, attracting crowds and making superstars with the sport’s diverse displays of artistry, power, athleticism and acrobatics. With every apparatus visible in the arena, the drama of this multifaceted sport is on full display as competitors seem to defy gravity and find balance magically from impossible tumbles and twists.

Women and men compete for individual and team medals. Women’s competition includes the vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor, while the men contest on floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars and high bar.

A panel of judges evaluate the athletes’ performances. Medallists and champions are determined based on the combined scores for difficulty and execution.

In the hands of athletes who combine elements of dance, artistic gymnastics and acrobatics, the apparatus in rhythmic gymnastics is in constant motion. The hoop, ball, clubs and ribbon — the names of both the apparatus and the individual events — come to life as the gymnasts propel themselves through movements that vary in shape, amplitude, direction, plane and speed. At times the apparatuses seem to be part of the athletes’ bodies; at other times they take flight during magnificent throws, returning to the gymnasts’ hands seconds later as if on a string.

Rhythmic gymnastics is a rare Pan American sport in which only women compete. They strive for the podium in five individual events — one for each apparatus, plus the all-around event — as well as group competitions with three different apparatuses.

Come watch Pan Am athletes fly. The trampoline can send competitors as high as nine metres into the air where they complete one of the 10 skills that constitute a routine. Some of the acrobatic elements have breathtaking combinations of speed, power, grace and flight.

The medal-winning routines will feature high, rhythmic bouncing leading to spectacular airborne twisting and tumbling elements. Watching trampoline up close is a study in opposites — the grace in the air versus the power of the bounce, the beauty of flight versus the danger of landing.

Fans who are new to handball will recognize elements of soccer, basketball and even lacrosse in a sport which is contested on a 40-metre by 20-metre floor by teams of seven players who pass and dribble a small ball with their hands. The game is physical and fast moving, with goals often coming in rapid succession and players regularly sacrificing their bodies to create or disrupt scoring opportunities. With no stoppage of play after goals, teams usually counterattack quickly on their way to final scores that can easily see 50 goals or more in the final tally.

Men’s and women’s teams each pursue medals in a sport where Pan American nations, South American nations in particular, have been making great progress recently, with the Brazilian women’s team capturing its first world championship in 2013.

Judo may mean “the gentle way,” but this is a sport of sudden throws and quick reflexes combined with tests to the limits of balance, flexibility, strategy and mental preparation. Judoka — the competitors — take to the mat (tatami) in search of victory by any of the available means. Ippon is an instant victory that comes from achieving perfection in an aggressive move such as a throw, armlock or stranglehold. More common among evenly matched judoka, victory is the result of an accumulation of points throughout the bout.

Judo was founded in Japan in 1882 as an evolutionary form of jiu-jitsu and was designed to be not just a martial art, but a way of teaching values like co-operation, respect, discipline and determination. Today, men and women compete in one of seven different weight classes.

Karate, the legendary “empty hand” martial art developed in Okinawa in the 17th century, offers two distinct forms of competition at TORONTO 2015. Kumite puts the athletes into a series of one-on-one bouts to reach the podium. During three-minute bouts for men and two-minute bouts for women, competitors receive points for successful kicks, strikes and punches to the opponent. Judges award points when a technique meets strict standards of performance that include good form, timing, vigour and awareness. Both men and women compete in six weight classes.

Kata is a judged competition featuring individual and team disciplines. Competitors perform without a direct opponent and display a series of choreographed karate techniques that judges score for timing, distance, power, balance and speed.

Modern pentathlon was invented by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games, to simulate the experiences and skills of a 19th century cavalry officer, so this unique sport demands diverse talents of its competitors as it challenges them with fencing, swimming, equestrian, running and shooting events. Modern pentathlon’s distinctive competitive structure also provides great theatre as the first athlete across the finish line of the final event wins, with the earlier events establishing a time handicap for the final element of the sport — a race that combines a series of 800-metre runs with pistol shooting.

Modern pentathlon offers a distinctive fan experience with indoor events followed by outdoor events, with equipment that includes swords and laser pistols and, of course, with horses.

Played on an enclosed court with spectators watching through a glass back wall, racquetball is an aggressive, physical sport where athletes frequently dive, spin, jump and slide to make shots and score points. Men and women compete in singles, doubles and team competitions where agility and creativity are prominent features. After one of the competitors puts the ball in play with a serve, every surface in the court — including the floor and ceiling — is in play. This allows shots to come from seemingly impossible angles and encourages both acrobatic defense and offense.

Canada, Mexico and the United States have dominated the men’s and women’s world championships, so the calibre of play within the Americas is the very best in the world.

John Joseph Merlin, the Belgian who first patented the roller skate, probably never imagined what the competitors in roller sports – figure skating would do with his invention. Much like the better-known (at least in Canada) figure skating on ice, roller sports – figure skating features men and women competing in solo performances of balletic, choreographed routines set to music. The routines include jumps, spins, footwork and dance-like elements scored by judges. The judging panel rewards speed, height in jumps, control, variety, originality and the sense of connection from one element to the next.

Competitors use the familiar four-wheel skates with matching pairs of wheels at the toe and heel.

If you ever wondered how fast your in-line roller skates could go, roller sports – speed skating answers that question. Men and women compete in three different events to identify the fastest athletes on eight wheels. Skaters push forward from a standing start and pursue gold in the 200-metre time trial, the 500-metre event and the 10,000-metre points event, which, as the name suggests, provide points for the fastest skaters at specific laps.

The competition at TORONTO 2015 promises to be truly world class as the Americas are always among the world’s best and Colombia is the undisputed world power in roller sports – speed skating.

Based at the legendary Royal Canadian Henley Rowing Course in St. Catharines, rowing events are 2,000-metre battles of speed, power, endurance and synchronization that leave the athletes completely spent as they cross the finish line. All rowers face backwards in their boats, using every major muscle group in their bodies to pull the blades of one or two oars through the water as their seats slide to allow for the longest and most powerful strokes possible.

Scullers pull two oars at a time, while sweepers have both hands on a single oar. In total, both men and women pull for gold in single sculls, double sculls, lightweight double sculls, quadruple sculls and the coxless pair. Women also compete in lightweight single sculls, while men race in the coxless four, lightweight coxless four and the eight with coxswain.

Watch out for scrums, rucks and mauls. Rugby union — a form of rugby contested by 15-player teams — is a massively popular global sport known for its speed and power. Rugby sevens, with seven players a side and shorter 14-minute matches, is better suited to multi-sport tournaments like TORONTO 2015 and the upcoming Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

Played on a pitch about the size of a Canadian football field, rugby sevens challenges teams to score points by driving the ball into the opponent’s goal area or kicking it through the goal posts. Teams try to advance the ball by running it forward and passing laterally or backwards to teammates to avoid tackles. This game is fierce, fast and physical and features some of the most intense battles for ball possession and field position anywhere in sport.

In sailing, nature is both an obstacle and a teammate. A beautiful sport to watch as brightly coloured craft slide across blue waters; the closer you look, the more action you see as sailors react quickly to changing conditions, the positions of competitors and the course.

In 10 different sailing events at TORONTO 2015, women compete against each other in three; men compete against each other in two and the remaining five see men and women in direct competition. The variety of boats includes windsurfers, dinghies, catamarans and keelboats, and every class features a set of highly specific rules designed to eliminate equipment advantages and isolate the skill of the sailors. Each event consists of a series of races around a course, with points awarded in each race according to finish position. Medals are awarded based on total accumulated points.

Shooting is the opposite of most Pan Am sports in that it places a premium on a lack of movement. The greatest athletes in the sport are the most still and controlled. There are three separate disciplines in shooting: pistol (a short firearm held in one hand), rifle (a long gun fired from the shoulder and designed to fire bullets with great accuracy) and shotgun (a long gun that fires round shot).

In shotgun, shooters hit flying clay targets heading either across their line of sight (skeet) or directly away from their shooting position (trap). Pistol competitions involve targets at distances of 10, 25 or 50 metres and either conventional pistols or air pistols. The rifle competitions take place over distances of 10 and 50 metres with variations of shooting position. There are events for standing rifle, prone rifle and three-position (prone, kneeling and standing) rifle.

The name of the sport suggests comfort. The bigger ball and smaller diamond (compared to its sporting cousin, baseball) suggest simplicity. However, up close and in person, the true challenge of softball is apparent. Pitchers launch the ball toward the plate underhand and that’s when the laws of aerodynamics take over, making the pitch rise, drop or curve. The dimensions of the game make the action fast and demand lightning-quick reactions from the players both at the plate and in the field.

In this globally competitive sport, the Americas are consistently among the world’s best and with the Pan Am Games being one of the truly marquee softball events, the Games will feature an exceptional level of competition and on-field excellence.

In elite-level competition, the tiny squash ball can reach speeds in excess of 200-kilometres an hour. This sport is fast. Played on a 205-square-metre court with the spectators almost part of the action because of the court’s glass back wall, the actions of both the ball and the athletes are marked by instantaneous changes in direction as the ball ricochets around the court and the competitors chase shots into the corners before returning to the dominant position in the centre of the court.

Contested in individual, doubles and team events, squash demands precision to keep the ball off the ceiling and floor and above the tin, a 48-centimetre boundary that ensures that shots off the front wall are at least high enough for the opponent to attempt a return.

In basements around the world, it may be known as whiff waff and flim flam, but in world-class competitions, it’s table tennis at the highest level. The game provides consistently stunning play as competitors control the lightest ball in sport and guide it over a six-inch net and onto a 22.5-square-foot half of a table. The array of shots the Pan Am athletes can make and — just as impressively — the positions on the floor from which they can hit them, almost defy physics. The ball, which can seem to float in the air at times, can also reach speeds of more than 150 kilometres an hour. It’s no surprise that the best points in table tennis often go viral online. Pan Am athletes will compete in both men’s and women’s singles and team competitions.

The command to begin fighting is “shi-jak!” Welcome to the “way of the foot and the hand.” Born in Korea with historical roots tracing back more than two millennia, taekwondo is a martial art contested in matches of three rounds of two minutes each. Combatants step onto the mat wearing protective gear on their heads and chests — the scoring areas in the sport. To win the match, competitors attempt to kick or punch their opponents in the scoring zones to earn points. The scoring system rewards activity and style, such as scoring a blow with one’s back to the opponent. This results in highly athletic and dynamic moves such as spinning kicks and punches. The winner can accumulate the most points by the end of the match, achieve a 12-point lead by the end of the second round, knock out the opponent or benefit from the opponent’s disqualification.

Men and women each compete in four weight classes.

It all starts with the serve — precise and spinning or flat and powerful — as the server tries to begin and end the point with one swing of the racquet. At the sport’s highest level, serves can approach 250 kilometres an hour, but tennis isn’t all about power. The speed of the players chasing down balls, the precision of passing shots that aim for and touch the line, the spins and variations used to keep opponents off balance are as impressive as any aspect of the game, especially from stands so close to the action.

Men and women compete in singles and in doubles where the “alleys” come into play and make the court slightly wider. Men and women also combine forces in two-person teams for mixed doubles. And remember that in tennis, if any part of the ball touches any part of a line on the court, the shot is good, so 99 per cent out is 100 per cent in.

Not many sports force their athletes to change shoes while the clock runs. Not many sports start in water and finish on land. Not many sports are triathlon. In the Pan Am Games, men and women complete a 1,500-metre open water swim, a 40-kilometre cycling road course and a 10-kilometre run. For an event contested over 51.5 total kilometres, it’s also amazingly action-packed, especially at the transitions from swim to bike and from bike to run where competitors hurriedly switch from one discipline to the next, trying to gain time on the field.

Most Pan Am triathlon spectators can be steps from the action where speed of transition is as important as endurance.

First contested at the 1999 Pan Am Games in Winnipeg, beach volleyball provides intense competition and athleticism in an almost festive atmosphere as both fans and athletes enjoy sun and sand mixed with national pride. In both men’s and women’s tournaments, two-person teams compete on sand courts nearly the same size as the indoor volleyball courts covered by six players a side. The speed, reflexes, acrobatics and skill required to defend the court produce highlight plays on nearly every point. On the sand, there is no room for specialists as both members of every team need to be skilled in digging, passing, setting, blocking and serving.

TORONTO 2015 promises to deliver tight matches and excellent play as nearly half of the top-ranked players in the world in both the men’s and women’s game come from Pan American countries.

Volleyball has become faster paced and harder hitting as rule changes have encouraged the development of more aggressive offensive attacks and devastating jump serves.

Six players aside defend their half of an 18-metre by 9-metre court with a net (2.43 metres high for men and 2.24 metres high for women) separating one team from the other. Some of the most critical parts of the game are played either well above the net, where attackers try to spike the ball to the ground while blockers attempt to stop the ball before it crosses, or right on the floor where lightning-quick defenders, particularly the defense-only specialist libero, keep attack hits from getting to the floor.

The only motorized sport at the Games, waterski & wakeboard are spectacles of turns, flips, twists and flight. While only men compete in wakeboarding — a tricks-based, judged competition where riders on short boards get airborne by using the boat’s wake as a ramp — both men and women compete in waterski’s four events: tricks, slalom, jump and overall.

Competitors in tricks have 20 seconds to perform on and above the water, with the winners receiving the highest-judged score. Slalom skiers weave through a series of six buoys. With every successful pass, the length of the tow rope changes, making each pass more difficult. The skier with the most buoys passed wins. Jumpers launch themselves from a large ramp at speeds of up to 120 kilometres per hour looking to land the longest — and winning — jump.

It is an elemental human competition — determining who’s strongest. An original Olympic Games sport, weightlifting combines precise technique with brute force as men (in eight weight classes) and women (in seven weight classes) compete to lift the most weight in two types of lifts. The snatch is a nerve-racking blink of an eye that takes the heavily weighted bar above the head in a single motion. The clean and jerk involves two distinct motions — one to bring the bar to rest at shoulder height, the next to push the weight to a stable position above the head.

Contested in a theatre-like setting with the athletes performing on stage, the drama escalates with the increasing weights of each round of lifts and the lifters strain, often right to their physical limits, to achieve clean lifts and win gold.

Wrestling may be the oldest sport in human history, but the action on the mat during competitions will show that the sport has lost none of its ferocity. In a contest of strength, skill, will and training, the combatants attempt to collect points by controlling their opponents with holds, grapples, throws and pins. Bouts are usually two or three periods of up to three minutes each, with the victorious wrestler being the first to win two rounds.

Pan Am wrestling features two styles. Freestyle wrestling is the younger of the two styles, tracing its origins back approximately two centuries. Athletes use their hands, arms and legs to fight their opponents, engaging with any part of their competitors’ bodies.

to receive regular email updates about the ticketing program.


How does the ticketing program work? The TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games will take place over 20 competition days. Each day will be broken down by sport, discipline and into smaller sessions. Sessions are defined as an individual sporting event, or group of individual sporting events, held in close timing to each other at one specific venue, whereby one ticket per person is sold to cover attendance. Medals will be awarded at some sessions.

Why do you use a ticket request process? Like most global sporting events, TO2015 will run a simple ticket request process online and by phone. This will give everyone a fair chance of securing tickets, regardless of working hours or time zones. For certain sessions where the demand for tickets may be higher than the number of seats available, a random allocation process (often referred to as lottery) will select a fixed number of orders from all of the requests received. This ensures the ticketing process will be fair for all applicants.

Who can request tickets? Anyone aged 16 years or over may request tickets.

How can I request tickets? Full details are available on TORONTO2015.org/tickets.

What does “price category” mean? Price categories are an indication of seat locations inside venues. Tickets in price category “A” will provide seating that is generally better in quality than tickets in price category “D” at the same session and venue. Lower price categories will still provide a great Games experience.

Your order is for tickets in particular price categories rather than for specific seats. A number of price categories will be available for most sessions. The number of price categories depends on the capacity and configuration of the venue.

Can I choose my seats? No. You will purchase tickets in a particular price category rather than specific seats. You’ll know your specific seats in 2015, after venue seating has been finalized.

What happens when there are more requests than tickets? Should demand exceed availability for any given session, a fair and simple lottery (where successful ticket requests will be chosen at random in an automated and unbiased way) will occur from all of the ticket requests received for that session. This ensures the ticketing process is fair for all.

QUESTIONSFREQUENTLY ASKED


Ticket General Terms and ConditionsThese Conditions govern all Tickets issued for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games and the subsequent admission to any Venue to attend any Event. All capitalised terms used herein shall have the meanings given to them in paragraph 35 of these Conditions. All Tickets are issued by TO2015, the Organizing Committee, pursuant to authority granted by PASO and the IPC/APC. Any person who purchases, possesses and/or uses or attempts to use any Ticket shall be deemed to have fully and irrevocably accepted and agreed to comply with these Conditions. These Conditions will be printed in abbreviated form on each Ticket. In the case of any conflict or ambiguity between these Conditions and the abbreviated form printed on a Ticket, these Conditions will prevail.

Venue Regulations1. These Conditions incorporate the Venue Regulations, a copy of which is available at www.toronto2015.org. If

you fail to comply with the applicable Venue Regulations, you may be refused entry to, or be evicted from, the Venue. In the case of any conflict or ambiguity between any term(s) of these Conditions and any term(s) of the Venue Regulations, the terms of these Conditions will prevail.

Ticket Purchase2. Tickets may only be purchased through TO2015 (directly or via an Official Ticketing Agent), the Authorized

Ticket Resellers, or through any other sale or transfer mechanism authorized in writing by TO2015. A full list of authorized sales channels is available at www.toronto2015.org. Tickets are non-transferable except as set out herein and are only valid for use by a Permitted Purchaser, and not by any other person.

3. The sale or other issuance of any Ticket is final and non-refundable except as outlined in paragraphs 19-24 of these Conditions or as required by applicable Canadian law. TO2015 reserves the right to not replace or accept any Ticket that has been lost, stolen, forgotten, damaged or forged, or any Ticket which is unreadable or incomplete.

Ticket Use & Prohibitions on Transfers4. It is an essential condition of the issuance of each and every Ticket and the right of admission to a Venue

that THE TICKET MUST NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED, EXPOSED OR MADE AVAILABLE FOR SALE, OR TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT WHERE ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA ARE MET:

a. the sale, transfer or disposal must not be for a value greater than the Original Sale Price of the Ticket;

b. the Ticket must not be offered publicly (including on any website) and the sale, transfer or disposal must not take place in the course of any business or for the purpose of facilitating a third party’s business;

c. the sale, transfer or disposal must be made strictly subject to these Conditions (and the transferee’s acceptance thereof) which shall be binding upon the transferee in full as if the transferee was the Ticket Purchaser, save only that such transferee shall have no right to transfer the Ticket under this paragraph 4 nor any right to a refund under paragraphs 19-24 of these Conditions; and

d. the transferee is a natural person, who is known to the Ticket Purchaser personally and who did not become known to the Ticket Purchaser through the sale, transfer or disposal of the Ticket, and the Ticket must be for the transferee’s personal use only.


5. Notwithstanding paragraph 4 above, it is an essential condition of the issuance of each and every Ticket and the right of admission to a Venue that, the Ticket must not be:

a. transferred, used or otherwise disposed of in the course of any business or for the purpose of facilitating a third party’s business;

b. transferred, used or otherwise disposed of:

i. in relation to any promotional or commercial purpose (including any competition, advertising, promotion, auction or as a prize in any competition or sweepstake, whether for a business or a charity or otherwise); or

ii. to enhance the demand for any other goods or services;

6. The Ticket Holder must, upon request by TO2015 or any Authorized Person, give a full explanation as to how, from whom (including full contact details) and from where his/her Ticket(s) have been obtained and at what price. If a Ticket Holder fails to provide a satisfactory, or any, explanation, TO2015 may, in its absolute discretion, cancel the Ticket(s) immediately.

7. Any Ticket offered for sale, sold, transferred, used or disposed of in breach of paragraphs 4 or 5 of these Conditions may be cancelled and any person seeking to use the Ticket may be refused admission to or evicted from the Venue without refund or compensation, even if the Ticket Holder did not have prior notice of these Conditions or the breach thereof. Further, TO2015 may pursue any other remedies available in relation to the breach.

8. The Games is governed by the Ticket Speculation Act (Ontario, Canada) and all applicable Municipal codes. Every person who, being the holder of a Ticket, sells or disposes of the Ticket at a higher price than that at which it was first issued, or endeavours or offers so to do, is guilty of an offence and on conviction is liable to a fine.

Venue Entry & Requirements9. Admission to a Venue will only be authorized upon presentation of a valid Ticket (one Ticket will be required for

each person, with the exception of any child aged under 24 months and who will not occupy a separate seat within the venue) and, upon request, proof of identity with valid photograph and signature. A valid Ticket permits the Ticket Holder to occupy, at the relevant Event, the position indicated on that Ticket or such other alternative position as TO2015 may allocate acting reasonably. Any Ticket Holder leaving a Venue will not be re-admitted and no pass-outs will be permitted.

10. Admission to a Venue will be refused to any person noticeably under the influence of alcohol, narcotics or any behaviour-modifying substance, or to any person behaving, or considered by any Authorized Person likely to behave, violently, harmfully or in a manner contrary to public order and/or safety. Admission may be refused to any person who attempts to bring any Prohibited Item into a Venue.

safety of (or pose a hazard to) any person or security at the Venue; and/or any camera or other type of photographic or recording device (of any nature whatsoever and whether capturing still or moving pictures) other than for personal use. Prohibited Items may be removed, confiscated and/or destroyed at the discretion of any Authorized Person;

b. possessing, bringing into, or using within a Venue any sponsorship, promotional or commercial items or materials (of whatever nature) without the prior written authorisation of TO2015 (the Ticket Holder may be asked to deliver up a copy of any such authorisation upon entry to or whilst within any Venue);

c. whilst within any Venue, engaging in any form of ambush marketing (whether by invasion, intrusion or otherwise), gambling, conducting any commercial activity whatsoever, or offering (either for free or for sale), selling or possessing items with intent to sell (including, without limitation, drinks, food, souvenirs, clothes, promotional and/or commercial items and literature), in each case without the prior written authorisation of TO2015. Any such items may be removed, confiscated and/or destroyed at the discretion of any Authorized Person;

d. whilst within any Venue, engaging in disruptive, dangerous or violent behaviour including (without limitation) throwing, casting, thrusting or propelling any object (including, without limitation, onto the Playing Surface), instigating violence, racism or xenophobia, behaving in a way that any reasonable person may interpret as provocative, threatening, discriminatory and/or offensive, creating or posing any threat to the life or safety of themselves or any other person(s), or harming any other person(s) in any way; and/or

12. No Ticket Holder shall be permitted to enter, attend or remain in attendance at any Venue where that person is banned by any competent authority and/or sports governing body from attending the Venue or the Event and/or from receiving any Ticket.

13. EACH TICKET HOLDER ADMITTED TO A VENUE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HIS/HER PRESENCE AND/OR MOVEMENT IN AND AROUND THE VENUE IS AT HIS/HER OWN RISK AND THAT TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TO2015 NOR ANY AUTHORIZED PERSONS ARE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE AND/OR HARM, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) BODILY OR MENTAL HARM, PERSONAL PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS, OR ANY OTHER LOSS AND/OR HARM ARISING FROM AND/OR OCCURRING DURING HIS/HER ATTENDANCE AT THE VENUE AND, WITHOUT LIMITATION TO THE FOREGOING, EACH TICKET HOLDER AGREES THAT NO CLAIM, COMPLAINT OR PROCEEDING WILL BE BROUGHT IN RELATION TO THE FOREGOING.

14. EACH TICKET HOLDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD TO2015 (INCLUDING THE OFFICIAL TICKETING AGENT), PASO, THE IPC/APC AND ALL AUTHORIZED PERSONS HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSS, DAMAGES AND LIABILITIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE COSTS OF ENFORCEMENT OR ATTEMPTED ENFORCEMENT OF THESE CONDITIONS) SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY ANY OF THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, RESULTING FROM, OR ARISING OUT OF, A BREACH BY THE TICKET HOLDER OF ANY OF THESE CONDITIONS.

For the purposes of safety, security and/or checking compliance with these Conditions, each Ticket Holder shall, if requested by any Authorized Person, co-operate and comply fully with the instructions and guidelines of such Authorized Person (including by producing a valid Ticket and proof of identity with valid photograph and signature).

Media & Recordings17. Photographs or any other recordings of sound or images taken by a Ticket Holder within a Venue may be used

for personal, private, non-commercial and non-promotional purposes only.

The Ticket Holder is also forbidden from making or distributing broadcasts, commentary, news reports and/or statistics in respect of the whole or any part of an Event, by any means and in any format or media, including (without limitation) any such content made, recorded or captured in still or moving form by mobile phones or by any other form of wireless and/or portable device.

Refund & Cancellation 19. TO2015 does not guarantee that the Event for which a Ticket is issued will take place at the date, time and

Venue indicated on the Ticket. TO2015 reserves the right to make alterations to the time, date and Venue of any Event or other details governed by any Ticket in the event of unforeseen or other circumstances, including (without limitation), force majeure, safety and security concerns or decisions from any Authorized Person or other competent authority. In the event of such alteration, neither TO2015 (including the Official Ticketing Agent) nor PASO or the IPC/APC will be liable to the Ticket Holder or any other person for any costs, expenses or other losses resulting from such alteration, except to the extent set out in paragraph 20 of these Conditions.

20. The following refund policy will apply:

a. If the Ticket is for an Event which is delayed but completed on the same calendar day, Ticket Holders shall not be eligible for a refund and there will be no Ticket exchanges for another Event.

b. If the Ticket is for an Event which is interrupted after it begins, and TO2015 determines that it was substantially completed, Ticket Holders shall not be eligible for a refund and there will be no Ticket exchanges for another Event.

c. If the Ticket is for an Event which commences as scheduled, is interrupted after it begins, and TO2015 determines that the Event was not substantially completed, and the Event is rescheduled to take place as a new Event, the Ticket Holder may:

i. Retain their original Ticket for admission to the rescheduled Event; or

ii. Apply for a refund for the Face Value of their Ticket(s).


d. If the Ticket is for an Event which commences as scheduled, is interrupted after it begins, and TO2015 determines that the Event was not substantially completed, and the Event is rescheduled as part of an existing Event (i.e. does not take place as a new Event), the Ticket Holder will receive an automatic refund within 30 working days of the rescheduling of the Event.

e. If the Ticket is for an Event which is rescheduled, before commencing, to an alternate day or venue the Ticket Holder may:

i. Retain their original Ticket for admission to the rescheduled Event; or

ii. Apply for a refund for the Face Value of their Ticket(s).

f. If an Event is cancelled (i.e. not held at all) the Ticket Holder will receive an automatic refund within 30 working days of the cancellation of the Event.

21. TO2015 shall not be required to refund any fees or charges paid in addition to the Face Value of the Ticket (for example, any postage or courier charges) except where required by applicable Canadian law. No interest or costs will be payable in respect of any monies refunded. TO2015 will not be liable for any associated costs, expenses or losses (including, without limitation, any indirect and/or consequential loss, such as for travel to the Venue or any accommodation costs).

22. Where application for a refund under paragraph 20 (c) and (e) of these Conditions applies, only the original Ticket Purchaser may apply for a refund. If TO2015 initiates a refund process, the Ticket Purchaser will be advised of the process and the prescribed deadline for refund, through the media or via direct communication, within 30 working days of the cancellation or rescheduling of the Event or the cancellation of the Games. The Ticket Purchaser must follow the prescribed process and deadline and produce the original Ticket in order to be eligible for a refund. To avoid any doubt, TO2015 shall not be required to issue a refund in relation to any Ticket which it reasonably believes has been the subject of a sale, transfer or disposal in breach of paragraphs 4 or 5 of these Conditions.

General 23. Personal information about a Ticket Purchaser will be collected and stored in accordance with the Freedom

of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA), R.S.O. 1990, c. F. 31, as amended, in support of the Toronto Organizing Committee for the 2015 Pan American and Parapan American Games’ mandate to plan, organize and stage the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am and Parapan Am Games. The Ticket Purchaser’s personal information will be used to identify the Ticket Purchaser, administer the ticketing process, communicate with the Ticket Purchaser for Games related purposes, and for enforcement and access control purposes. The Ticket Purchaser has a right of access to, and correction of, his/her personal information. Ticket Purchaser personal information will be used and disclosed in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which can be accessed at http://www.toronto2015.org/privacy-policy. Should you have any questions concerning the collection, use or disclosure of your personal information, please contact our Freedom of Information and Privacy Coordinator, 25 Dockside Drive, 7th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5A 0B5, 416.957.2015.

24. In the event that any provision(s) of these Conditions is declared void, ineffective or unenforceable in any respect by any competent court in any jurisdiction, that provision(s) shall be severed to the extent necessary in that jurisdiction, and the remainder of these Conditions will remain in effect as if such provision(s) had not been included and the validity, enforceability and/or legal effect of such remaining Conditions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

25. TO2015 RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE AMENDMENTS TO THESE CONDITIONS FROM TIME TO TIME AT TO2015’S SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE (INCLUDING BY AMENDING OR SUPPLEMENTING THE VENUE REGULATIONS). A full copy of the latest version of the Conditions (as amended, if appropriate) will be available at www.toronto2015.org and, upon request, from TO2015 at the address set out in paragraph 28 of these Conditions.

26. Any information requests or other correspondence in relation to these Conditions should be addressed to: Ticketing Department, TO2015, Corus Quay, 25 Dockside Drive, 7th Floor, Toronto, ON M5A 0B5.


27. These Conditions will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Canada. Any dispute arising from or in connection with these Conditions or a Ticket Holder’s attendance at an Event will be submitted to the competent Court in Canada. Notwithstanding the foregoing, TO2015 reserve the right to pursue any legal proceedings in a competent court in the defendant’s domicile, which proceedings shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Canada.

28. Any breach of any Condition set out herein may, in addition to any other remedy that TO2015 may have (including claiming under the indemnity provided in paragraph 14 of these Conditions), and even if the Ticket Holder did not have prior notice of the Condition or the breach, result in the cancellation of the Ticket, the refusal of admission to the Ticket Holder to the Venue, or his/her eviction from the Venue, in each case without refund or compensation. No failure or delay by TO2015 to exercise any right (in whole or in part) under these Conditions shall constitute a waiver of that right, nor restrict any further exercise of that right.

29. All Tickets (and the copyright in all Tickets) remain the property of TO2015. In the event of any breach of any of these Conditions by a Ticket Holder, Tickets must, upon the request of any Authorized Person, be delivered up to that Authorized Person. Such actions are without prejudice to other remedies which may include a fine and/or legal action.
