ANNEX B: MODIFICATIONS FOR ATHLETES WHO ARE MINORS

Objective

B.1 To ensure that the needs of Athletes who are Minors are met, in relation to the provision of a Sample, without compromising the integrity of the Sample Collection Session.

Scope General

B.2 Determining whether modifications are necessary starts with identification of situations where Sample collection involves Athletes who are Minors and ends with modifications to Sample collection procedures where necessary and where possible.

Responsibility

B.3 The OCA has responsibility for ensuring, when possible, that the VDCM/DCO has any information necessary to conduct a Sample Collection Session with an Athlete who is a Minor. This includes confirming wherever necessary that parental consent clauses are in place when arranging Testing at an Event.

Requirements

B.4 All aspects of notification and Sample collection for Athletes who are Minors shall be carried out in accordance with the standard notification and Sample collection procedures unless modifications are necessary due to the Athlete being a Minor.

B.5 In planning or arranging Sample collection, the OCA, IAGOC, the VDCM and the DCO shall consider whether there will be any Sample collection for Athletes who are Minors that may require modifications to the standard procedures for notification or Sample collection.

B.6 The VDCM/DCO and IAGOC shall have the authority to make modifications as the situation requires when possible and as long as such modifications will not compromise the identity, security or integrity of the Sample.

B.7 Athletes who are Minors should be accompanied by a representative throughout the entire Sample Collection Session. The representative shall not witness the passing of a urine Sample unless requested to do so by the Minor. The objective is to ensure that the DCO is observing the Sample provision correctly. Even if the Minor declines a representative, the OCA/VDCM/DCO, as applicable, shall consider whether a third party ought to be present during notification of and/or collection of the Sample from the Athlete.

B.8 For Athletes who are Minors, the VDCM/DCO shall determine who, in addition to the Sample Collection Personnel, may be present during the Sample Collection Session, namely a Minor’s

Page 36: Doping Control Handbook - JOC · period of the Asian Games (also known as the ‘games period”).The 17th Asian Games Incheon 2014Period is defined as “the period commencing on

representative to observe the Sample Collection Session (including observing the DCO when the Minor is passing the urine Sample, but not to directly observe the passing of the urine Sample unless requested to do so by the Minor) and the DCO’'s representative, to observe the DCO when a Minor is passing a urine Sample, but without the representative directly observing the passing of the Sample unless requested by the Minor to do so.

B.9 Should a Minor decline to have a representative present during the Sample Collection Session, this should be clearly documented by the DCO/Chaperone. This does not invalidate the test, but must be recorded. If a Minor declines the presence of a representative, the representative of the DCO must be present.

B.10 Should a Minor fall within a Registered Testing Pool, the preferred venue for all Testing is a location where the presence of an adult is most likely, e.g. at a training venue. However, Testing at any other venue will not invalidate the test.

B.11 The OCA and IAGOC shall consider the appropriate course of action when no adult is present at the Testing of an Athlete who is a Minor and shall accommodate the Athlete in locating a representative in order to proceed with Testing.

Once the Sample has been provided, the DCO shall also ensure that no additional volume is passed by the Athlete at the time of provision, which could have been secured in the collection vessel.

C.14 The DCO shall verify, in full view of the Athlete, that a Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis has been provided.

C.15 Athletes shall be required to provide as much urine as possible and no less than the Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis (a minimum of 90ml). The DCO shall verify, in full view of the Athlete, that the Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis has been provided. Where the volume of the urine is insufficient, the DCO shall conduct a partial Sample collection procedure in accordance with the procedure set out

below (see ANNEX E: Urine Samples – insufficient volume).

C.16 The DCO shall instruct the Athlete to select a Sample collection kit containing A and B containers in accordance with Procedure C.7.

C.17 Once a Sample collection kit has been selected, the DCO and the Athlete shall check that all code numbers match and that this code number is recorded accurately by the DCO.

C.18 If the Athlete or DCO finds that the numbers are not the same, the DCO shall instruct the Athlete to choose another kit in accordance with Procedure C.7. The DCO shall record the matter.

C.19 The Athlete shall pour the minimum Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis into the B bottle (to a minimum of 30ml), and then pour the remainder of the urine into the A bottle (to a minimum of 60ml). If more than the minimum Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis has been provided, the DCO shall ensure that the Athlete fills the A bottle to capacity as per the recommendation of the equipment manufacturer. Should there still be urine remaining, the DCO shall ensure that the Athlete fills the B bottle to capacity as per the recommendation of the equipment manufacturer. The DCO shall instruct the Athlete to ensure that a small amount of urine is left in the collection vessel, explaining that this is to enable the DCO to test the specific gravity of that residual urine in accordance with Procedure C.22.

C.20 The Athlete shall seal the containers as directed by the DCO. The DCO shall check, in full view of the Athlete, that the containers have been properly sealed.

C.21 Urine should only be discarded when both the A and B bottles have been filled to capacity in accordance with Procedure C.19 and sealed in accordance with Procedure C.20, and after the residual urine has been tested in accordance with Procedure C.22. The Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis shall be viewed as an absolute minimum.

C.22 The DCO shall test the residual urine in the collection vessel to determine if the Sample has a Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis (1.005or higher with a refract meter or 1.010 or higher with lab sticks). If the DCO’s filed reading indicates that the Sample does not have a Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis, then the DCO shall follow the procedure set out at Annex F (URINE SAMPLES- Samples that do not meet the required Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis). The DCO should ensure that the Athlete has been given the option of requiring that any residual urine that will not be sent for analysis is discarded in full view of the Athlete.

C.23 The DCO shall ensure that the Athlete has been given the option of requiring that any residual urine that will not be sent for analysis is discarded in full view of the Athlete.
