WORLD SKATE ANTI -DOPING RULES JANUARY 1, 20 21 Version 2 Amended 23 April 2021 Adopted World Skate Executive Board 14 May 2021 World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 2 of 67 Based on 2021 World Anti -Doping Code TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ............................. |
55 ARTICLE 21 ADDITIONAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF ATHLETE SUPPORT PERSONNEL ................................ ................................ ................................ ..................... 56 ARTICLE 22 ADDITIONAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF OTHER PERSONS SUBJECT TO THESE ANTI -DOPING RULES .......... |
These Anti -Doping Rules are sport rules governing the conditions under which sport is played. |
Aimed at enforcing anti -doping rules in a global and harmonized manner, th ey are distinct in nature from criminal and civil laws. |
They are not intended to be subject to or limited by any national requirements and legal standards applicable to criminal or civil proceedings, although they are intended to be applied in a manner whi ch respects the principles of proportionality and human rights. |
When reviewing the facts and the law of a given case, all courts, arbitral tribunals and other adjudicating bodies should be aware of and respect the distinct nature of these Anti -Doping Rules , which implement the Code , and the fact that these rules represent the consensus of a broad spectrum of stakeholders around ... |
As provided in the Code , World Skate shall be responsible for conducting all aspects of Doping Control . |
Any aspect of Doping Control or anti -doping Education may be delegated by World Skate to a Delegated Third Party , such as the International Testing Agency (ITA), however, World Skate shall require the Delegated Third Party to perform such aspects in compliance with the Code , International Standards , and these ... |
World Skate may delegate its adjudication responsibilities and Results Management to the CAS Anti-Doping Division. |
When World Skate has delegated its responsibilities to implement part or all of Doping Control to the Delegated Third Party , any reference to World Skate in these Rules should be intended as a reference to that Delegated Third Party , where applicable and within the context of the aforementioned delegation. |
World Skate shall always remain full y responsible for ensuring that any delegated aspects are perform ed in compliance with the Code . |
Italicized t erms in these Anti -Doping Rules are defined terms in Appendix 1. |
Unless otherwise specified, references to Articles are references to Articles of the se Anti -Doping Rules. |
Fundamental Rationale for the Code and World Skate 's Anti -Doping Rules Anti-doping programs are founded on the intrinsic value of sport. |
This intrinsic value is often referred to as "the spirit of sport": the ethical pursuit of human excellence through th e dedicated perfection of each Athlete’s natural talents. |
Anti-doping programs seek to protect the health of Athletes and to provide the opportunity for Athletes to pursue human excellence without the Use of Prohibited Substances and Methods . |
Anti-doping programs seek to maintain the integrity of sport in terms of respect for rules, other competitors, fair competition, a level playing field, and the value of clean sport to the world. |
The spirit of sport is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind. |
It is the essence of Olympism and is reflected in the values we find in and through sport, including: • Health • Ethics, fair play and honesty World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 4 of 67 • Athletes’ rights as set forth in the Code • Excellence in performance • Character and Education • Fun and joy • Tea... |
Doping is fundamentally contrary to the spirit of sport. |
WORLD SKATE ANTI -DOPING HISTORY World Skate condemns doping as fundamentally contrary to the spirit of sport and upholds the principles of Fairness, Respect, Responsibility and Safety in Sport . |
Historically doping control s have existed in World Skate on an informal basis. |
In 1999, following the Lausanne Declaration, World Skate (then FIRS ) adopted its first formal anti -doping policy. |
In 2003, World Skate became one of the first International Federations to sign the Code and form ally adopt a WADA compliant anti -doping policy in 2004. |
In 2008 the use of ADAMS for all Athletes and anti -doping administration was initiated. |
The aim of this policy is to further World Skate’s belief that • All Athletes have the right to participate in doping -free sport and to promote health, fairness and equality for all Athletes worldwide ; and • To promote standardised, effective and coordinated anti -doping programs to ensure detection of doping... |
Scope of these Anti -Doping Rules These Anti -Doping Rules shall apply to: (a) World Skate , including its board members, directors, officers, and specified employees , and Delegated Third Parties and their employees, who are involved in any aspect of Doping Control ; (b) each of its National Federations , inclu... |
A World Skate license or accreditation will only be issued to Athletes or Athlete Support Personnel or other Persons who have personally signed the consent form as provided by World Skate . |
All forms from Minors must be counter -signed by their legal guardians ; and (iv) Athletes who are not regular members of World Skate or of one of its National Federations but who want to be eligible to compete in a particular International Event . |
Each of the above mentioned Perso ns is deemed, as a condition of his or her participation or involvement in a World Skate sport, to have agreed to and be bound by these Anti -Doping Rules, and to have submitted to the authority of World Skate to enforce these Anti -Doping Rules, including any Consequences for the ... |
1 [Comment: Where the Code requires a Person other than an Athlete or Athlete Support Person to be bound by the Code, such Person would of course not be subject to Sample collection or Testing, and would not be charged with an anti -doping rule violation unde r the Code for Use or Possession of a Prohibited Substance... |
Rather, such Person would only be subject to discipline for a violation of Code Articles 2.5 (Tampering), 2.7 (Trafficking), 2.8 (Administration), 2.9 (Complicity), 2. |
10 (Proh ibited Association) and 2.11 (Retaliation). |
Furthermore, such Person would be subject to the additional roles and responsibilities according to Code Article 21.3. |
Also, the obligation to require an employee to be bound by the Code is subje ct to applicable law. |
World Skate shall ensure that, as per Article 19 of these Anti -Doping Rules, any arrangements with their board members, directors, officers, and specified employees , as well as with the Delegated Third Parties and their employees – either employment, contractual or otherwise – have explicit provisions incorporated ac... |
World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 6 of 67 ARTICLE 1 DEFINITION OF DOPING Doping is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the anti -doping rule violations set forth in Article 2.1 through Article 2.1 1 of these Anti -Doping Rules. |
ARTICLE 2 ANTI -DOPING RULE VIOLATIONS The purpose of Article 2 is to specify the circumstances and conduct which consti tute anti -doping rule violations. |
Hearings in doping cases will proceed based on the assertion that one or more of these specific rules have been violated. |
Athletes or other Persons shall be responsible for knowing what constitutes an anti -doping rule vio lation and the substances and methods which have been included on the Prohibited List . |
The following constitute anti -doping rule violations: 2.1 Presence of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers in an Athlete’s Sample 2.1.1 It is the Athletes’ personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance enters their bodies. |
Athletes are responsible for any Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers found to be present in their Samples . |
Accordingly, it is not necessary that in tent, Fault , Negligence or knowing Use on the Athlete’s part be demonstrated in order to establish an anti -doping rule violation under Article 2.1. |
2 2.1.2 Sufficient proof of an anti -doping rule violation under Article 2.1 is established by any of the following: presence of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers in the Athlete’s A Sample where the Athlete waives analysis of the B Sample and the B Sample is not analyzed; or, where the A... |
2.1.4 As an exception to the general rule of Article 2.1, the Prohibited List , Internat ional Standards or Technical Documents may establish special criteria for reporting or the evaluation of certain Prohibited Substances . |
2 [Comment t o Article 2.1.1: An anti -doping rule violation is committed under this Article without regard to an Athlete’s Fault. |
This rule has been referred to in various CAS decisions as “Strict Liability”. |
An Athlete’s Fault is taken into consideration in d eterminin g the Consequences of this anti -doping rule violation under Article 10. |
This principle has consistently been upheld by CAS.] |
3 [Comment to Article 2.1.2: The Anti -Doping Organization with Results Management responsibility may, at its discretion, choose t o have the B Sample analyzed even if the Athlete does not request the analysis of the B Sample.] |
World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 7 of 67 2.2 Use or Attempted Use by an Athlete of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method 4 2.2.1 It is the Athletes’ personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance enters their bodies and that no Prohibited Method is Used . |
Accordingly, it is not necessary that intent, Fault , Negligence or knowing Use on the Athlete’s part be demonstrated in order to establish an anti -doping rule violation for Use of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method . |
2.2.2 The success or failure of the Use or Attempted Use of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method is not material. |
It is sufficient that the Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method was Used or Attempted to be Used for an anti -doping rule violation to be committed.5 2.3 Evading, Refusing or Failing to Submit to Sample Collection by an Athlete Evading Sample collection; or refusing or failing to submit to Sample coll... |
2.5 Tampering or Attempted Tampering with any Part of Doping Control by an Athlete or Other Person 2.6 Possession of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method by an Athlete or Athlete Support Person 2.6.1 Possession by an Athlete In-Competition of any Prohibited Substance or any Prohibited Method ... |
As noted in the Comment to Article 3.2, unlike the proof required to establish an a nti-doping rule violation under Article 2.1, Use or Attempted Use may also be established by other reliable means such as admissions by the Athlete, witness statements, documentary evidence, conclusions drawn from longitudinal profilin... |
For example, Use may be established based upon reliab le analytical data from the analysis of an A Sample (without confirmation from an analysis of a B Sample) or from the analysis of a B Sample alone where the Anti -Doping Organization provides a satisfactory explanation for the lack of confirmation in the ot her Samp... |
5 [Comment to Article 2.2.2: Demonstrating the "Attempted Use" of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method requires proof of intent on the Athlete’s part. |
The fact that intent may be required to prove this particular anti -doping rule vio lation does not undermine the Strict Liability principle established for violations of Article 2.1 and violations of Article 2.2 in respect o f Use of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method. |
An Athlete’s Use of a Prohibited Substance constitutes an a nti-doping rule violation unless such substance is not prohibited Out -of-Competition and the Athlete’s Use takes place Out -of-Competition. |
(However, the presence of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers in a Sample collected In -Competition i s a violation of Article 2.1 regardless of when that substance might have been administered .)] |
6 [Comment to Article 2.3: For example, it would be an anti -doping rule violation of “evading Sample collection” if it were established that an Athlete was deliberately avoiding a Doping Control official to evade notification or Testing. |
A violation of “fail ing to submit to Sample collection” may be based on either intentional or negligent conduct of the Athlete, while “evading” or “refusing” S ample collection contemplates intentional conduct by the Athlete.] |
World Skate Anti -Doping Rules Page 8 of 67 Competition unless the Athlete establishes that the Possession is consistent with a Therapeutic Use Exemption (“TUE”) granted in accordance with Article 4.4 or other acceptable justification. |
