 How do Athletes know they need to undergo a test?
Athletes are personally notified of their selection for testing by a Doping Control Officer (DCO). Following notification for both In-and Out-of-Competition Testing, the Sample Collection Personnel accompanies the athlete at all times until the sample is processed and sealed. |
|
| At competitions, athletes are typically notified on the field of play and have 60 minutes from the time of notification to arrive at the Doping Control Station. The athlete may use the 60 minute time limit to cool down, attend awards ceremonies, attend media obligations, find an Athlete Representative, retrieve photo identification, etc. |
|
| The notification for Out-of-Competition (OOC) tests typically occur at the athlete's home or training facility. Unlike In-Competition Testing, there is no time limit for reporting to the Doping Control Station since the test will typically take place at the site of notification. |
