ISCCS – January 2021 Page 55 of 61 ANNEX B: SIGNATORY CONSEQUENCES Annex B identifies the range of graded and proportionate Signatory Consequences that shall prima facie apply in cases involving non- compliance with Critical requirements (see Article B.3) or only High Priority requirements (see Article B.2) or only General requirements (see Article B.1). |
The intention is to promote predictability and consistency in the imposition of Signatory Consequences across all cases. |
However, there shall be flexibility to vary within or even to depart from this range in a particular case, where the application of the principles set out in Article 10 to the specific facts and circumstances of that case so warrant. |
In particular, the greater the degree of non- compliance (i.e., the more requirements with which the Signatory has failed to comply, and the more serious those requirements), the greater the Signatory Consequences should be. |
If a case includes not only non -compliance with one or more Critical requirements but also Aggravating Factors , that shall warrant a significant increase in the Signatory Consequences imposed. |
On the other hand, if it includes extenuating circumstances, that may warrant the imposition of lesser Signatory Consequences . |
In each case, the starting point shall be as follows: B.1. |
In a case of non- compliance with one or more General requirements (but not with any High Priority or Critical requirements): B.1.1. |
In the first instance: a. the Signatory will lose its WADA Privileges ; b. it will be assisted in its Anti-Doping Activities (through the provision of advice and information, the development of resources, guidelines and training materials, and/or, where necessary, the delivery of training programs) by WADA , or by an Approved Third Party , at the Signatory’s expense, including up to two (2) visits a year, with all known costs paid in advance; and c. some or all of its Anti-Doping Activities (as specified by WADA ) may be subject to either Special Monitoring by WADA or Supervision by an Approved Third Party , at the Signatory ’s expense. |
B.1.2. |
If the Signatory has not fully satisfied the conditions for Reinstatement twelve (12) months after the Signatory Consequences set out at Article B.1.1 are imposed (or such other period as WADA – or, if disputed, CAS – may specify), then the following further Signatory Consequences will also apply: a. some or all of the Signatory ’s Anti-Doping Activities will be Supervised at the Signatory’s expense by an Approved Third Party , including up to four (4) site visits a year, with all known costs to be paid in advance (where known) ; and b. the Signatory’s Representatives will be ineligible to sit as members of the boards or committees or other bodies of any other Signatory (or its members) or association of Signatories until the non -compliant Signatory is Reinstated. |
B.1.3. |
If the Signatory has still not fully satisfied the conditions for Reinstatement twenty -four (24) months after the Signatory Consequences set out at Article B.1.1 are imposed (or such ISCCS – January 2021 Page 56 of 61 other period as WADA – or, if disputed, CAS – may specify), then the following further Signatory Consequences will also apply: a. all of the Signatory ’s Anti-Doping Activities will be Supervised by an Approved Third Party , at the Signatory ’s expense, including up to six (6) site visits a year, with all known costs to be paid in advance (where known) ; b. the Signatory’s Representatives will be ineligible to sit as members of the boards or committees or other bodies of any Signatory (or its members) or association of Signatories until the non- compliant Signatory is Reinstated or for one (1) year (whichever is longer); and c. (if the Signato ry is an organization outside of the Olympic Movement, not recognized by the International Olympic Committee, and maintains its Signatory status under the applicable WADA policy) the Signatory’s status as a Signatory to the Code will be terminated, without any entitlement to reimbursement of any fees paid for such status. |

The overall guiding purpose of the International Standard for Education is to support the preservation of the spirit of sport as outlined in the Code and to help foster a clean sport environment . |
It is recognized that the vast majority of Athletes wish to compete clean, have no intention to Use Prohibited Substances or Methods and have the right to a level playing field. |
Education, as one Prevention strategy highlighted in the Code , seeks to promote behavior in line with the values of clean sport and to help prevent Athletes and other Persons from doping. |
A key underpinning principle of the International Standard for Education is that an Athlete’s first experience with anti -doping should be through Education rather than Doping Control . |
The International Standard for Education has three (3) main objectives in support of this purpose. |
The first objective is to establish mandatory standards which support Signatories in the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of effective Educat ion Programs as stipulated in Code Article 18 . |
The Code , International Standard for Education and Guidelines for Education will be aligned in such a manner that the Code will outline the framework for Education, the International Standard for Education will set out the principles and minimum standards that Education Programs shall include, while the Guidelines for Education will aid Signatories to develop and improve their Education Program. |
The second objective of the International Standard for Education is to provide: a) Definitions of terminology in the Education field. |
b) Clarity on roles and responsibilities for all Signatories responsible for planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluating Education Programs . |
The third objective of the International Standard for Education is to help Signatories maximize the use of their resources by: a) Requiring Signatories to establish an Education Pool that shall at a minimum, include Athletes in the Registered Testing Pool and Athletes returning from a sanction. |
b) Encouraging Signatories to cooperate with others and coordinate their Education activities to minimize duplication. |
c) Encouraging Signatories to consider the benefits of educating a wider population through Values -Based Education programs to instill the spirit of sport and foster a clean sport environment. |
d) Encouraging Signatories to engage and leverage the resources and expertise of others, including governments, researchers and educational institutions. |
ISE – January 2021 Page 5 of 19 2.0 Code Provisions The following articles in the 2021 Code are directly relevant to the International Standard for Education; they can be obtained by referring to the Code itself: • Introduction • Code Article 18 Education • Code Article 20 Additional Roles and Responsibilities of Signatories and WADA • Code Article 21 Additional Roles and Responsibilities of Athletes and other Persons 3.0 Definitions and Interpretation 3.1 Defined terms from the 2021 Code that are used in the International Standard for Education ADAMS : The Anti -Doping Administration and Management System is a Web- based database management tool for data entry, storage, sharing, and reporting, designed to assist stakeholders and WADA in their anti -doping operations in conjunction with data protection legislation. |
Anti-Doping Organization: WADA or a Signatory that is responsible for adopting rules for initiating, implementing or enforcing any part of the Doping Control process. |
This includes, for example, the International Olympic Committee, the International Paralympic Committee, other Major Event Organizations that conduct Testing at their Events, International Federations , and National Anti -Doping Organizations. |
Athlete : Any Person who competes in sport at the international level (as defined by each International Federation) or the national level (as defined by each National Anti -Doping Organization). |
An Anti-Doping Organization has discretion to apply anti-doping rules to an Athlete who is neither an International -Level Athlete nor a National -Level Athlete, and thus to bring them within the definition of “ Athlete ”. |
In relation to Athletes who are neither International -Level nor National -Level Athletes , an Anti -Doping Organization may elect to: conduct limited Testing or no Testing at all; analyze Samples for less than the full menu of Prohibited Substances ; require limited or no whereabouts information; or not require advance TUEs . |
However, if an Article 2.1, 2.3 or 2.5 anti -doping rule violation is committed by any Athlete over whom an Anti -Doping Organi zation has elected to exercise its authority to test and who competes below the international or national level, then the Consequences set forth in the Code must be applied. |
For purposes of Article 2.8 and Article 2.9 and for purposes of anti -doping inform ation and E ducation, any Person who participates in sport under the authority of any Signatory , government, or other sports organization accepting the Code is an Athlete . |
[Comment to Athlete: Individuals who participate in sport may fall in one of five cat egories: 1) International -Level Athlete, 2) National -Level Athlete, 3) individuals who are not International or National -Level Athletes but over whom the International Federation or National Anti -Doping Organization has chosen to exercise authority, 4) Recreational Athlete, and 5) individuals over whom no International Federation or National Anti -Doping Organization has, or has chosen to, ISE – January 2021 Page 6 of 19 exercise authority. |
All International and National -Level Athletes are subject to the anti -doping rules of the Code, wi th the precise definitions of international and national level sport to be set forth in the anti -doping rules of the International Federations and National Anti -Doping Organizations.] |
Athlete Biological Passport : The program and methods of gathering and collating data as described in the International Standard for Testing and Investigations and International Standard for Laboratories. |
Athlete Support Personnel : Any coach, trainer, manager, agent, team staff, official, medical, paramedical personnel, parent or any other Person working with, treating or assisting an Athlete participating in or preparing for sports Competition . |
Code: The World Anti -Doping Code. |
