Prince’s IOC bid all but certain
One can only hope that frederik will do something constructive on the board in case he gets elected. if not he'll be in good company - the IOC doesn't have the best reputation to put it politely and its members are no strangers to controversy, just to name the usual corruption claims and obsure behind-the-scenes decisions. There has been an improvement since Rogge took over, under Samaranch the governing body of the IOC became one big corrupt mess losing almost all of its credibility. |

According to this article, Crown Prince Frederik is currently taking media training in order to improve his speech, and to avoid gaffes during his candidacy for the IOC:

According to Wikipedia (which may or may not be 100% accurate), each member is elected for an 8-year term. He or she may be elected again after their 8 years are up.

Billed Bladet says that the Queen is helping Crown Prince Frederik to get elected to the IOC:
Billed-Bladet - Dronningen hjælper Frederik med at blive IOC-medlem She is doing this by personally inviting the committee to a reception after the opening event, where she plans to show the committee how much she values their work. The Queen will personally greet each committee member. The article stresses that even though royals have been among the IOC members for years, this is the first time that a sitting monarch has invited the committee to such an event.
