Based on previous discussions, I’ve started a W3C document with a collection of use cases and scenarios related to digital credentials applied to sports. This will serve us to analyze the type of credentials we would need and start the standardization process.

I’ve drafted nine use cases, based on the discussions we’ve had. I’ve collected all the types of credentials and defined the concepts to start approaching other community members and see if they can contribute. I’ve recorded some videos with demos as well. You can see the draft at: [Sports Competition Digital Credentials Use Cases](https://w3c.github.io/opentrack-cg/spec/credentials-uc/#usecases) . Comments welcome!
