Thank you! I thought perhaps the French was a translation of the English but this has resolved the issue as well as providing a useful resource.

Explanation:
Maybe not a judicial appeal court, but might the person not be appealing a judgement/ban by the sports authority subsequent to a positive drugs test? They are all doing it ... and appealing when they get caught.

Otherwise, assembly area, maybe.

<<L’horaire fixé pour l’appel des concurrents ne peut être transgressé, ces derniers devant à ce moment faire tamponner leur dossard pour le valider. Pour cela, les élèves devront aller à la chambre d’appel 15 minutes avant le départ de chaque course>>

<<CHAMBRE d\'APPEL (zone goudronnée)
- PREMIER DEPART 13 H
- APPEL des COURSES à la chambre d\'appel 15\' AVANT.
Le passage à celle-ci EST OBLIGATOIRE pour faire tamponner son dossard.
TOUT DOSSARD non tamponné sera retiré du classement >>

<<Therefore, we asked that all swimmers be present at the \'roll-call room\' at the scheduled time>> [Swiss site]

<<ALL RUNNERS MUST BE AT THE RACE ASSEMBLY AREA BY 9.40AM>>

<<The assembly area for the runners was quickly filling up by the time we got there>>
