WADA wants changes on sample collection

June 17, 2012

The World Anti-Doping Agency is suggesting that athletes shall not be noticed in advance also when samples are collected in competition.

In the new suggested code it says: 5.1.5: Where feasible, all In-Competition testing shall be No Advance Notice - which means that any event organizer does not need to inform the athlete that he/she is to be tested after the competition.

Access the world's largest Anti-Doping Database, spanning over 60 years of doping cases and investigations.

Use up-to-date data when reporting or researching on doping in sport, or when defending an athlete in an anti-doping matter.
