14.1 Generalities 14.1.1 Doping is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the anti-doping

violations set forth in these anti-doping rules.



14.1.2 These regulations apply to the Winter and Summer Universiades and the World University Championships under the control of FISU. All Athletes and each Athlete Support Personnel participating are subject to this Code.

14.1.3 It is the personal responsibility of any Athlete subject to the provisions of the

Code to ensure s/he does not Use or allow the Use of any Prohibited Substances or Methods and is not in Possession of any Prohibited Substance.

14.1.4 FISU strongly condemns the Use of doping by Athletes on both ethical and

health grounds. FISU is a WADA Signatory and all Athletes participating in a FISU Event are required to accept the WADA Code and abide by the Code.

14.1.5 The Use of doping is strictly forbidden. 14.1.6 Doping Control may include urine Samples, blood test and other authorised

techniques for detecting Prohibited Substances or Methods. 14.1.7 Team officials should ensure that Athletes under their control are warned in

advance that they may be required to undertake Doping Control tests. Those test results are reported to WADA and the appropriate National and International Sports Federations.

14.1.8 Any Athlete who tries to avoid or refuses to take a doping test or who is found

guilty of doping shall be subjected to disciplinary actions according to Article 14.9 (Results Management).

14.1.9 For the interpretation of these regulations, the FISU Medical Committee

(CMI) is the sole authority. If there is a conflict between the English and French version, the English version will prevail.

14.2 Anti-Doping Rule Violations 14.2.1 Athletes and other Persons shall be responsible for knowing what constitutes

an anti-doping rule violation and the substances and methods which have been included on the Prohibited List. The following constitute anti-doping rule violations:

14.2.1.1 The presence of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers in an

Athlete’s Sample 14.2.1.1.1 It is each Athlete’s personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance

enters his or her body. 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 intent, fault, negligence or knowing Use on the Athlete’s part be demonstrated in order to establish an anti-doping violation under Article 14.2.1.1.



14.2.1.1.2 Sufficient proof of an anti-doping rule violation under Article 14.2.1.1 is established by either 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 analysed; or, where the Athlete’s B Sample is analysed and the analysis of the Athlete’s B Sample confirms the presence of the Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers found in the Athlete’s A Sample.

14.2.1.1.3 Excepting those substances for which a quantitative threshold is

specifically identified in the Prohibited List, the presence of any quantity of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers in an Athlete’s Sample shall constitute an anti-doping rule violation.

14.2.1.1.4 As an exception to the general rule of Article 14.2.1.1, the Prohibited List or International Standards may establish special criteria for the evaluation of Prohibited Substances that can also be produced endogenously.

14.2.1.2 Use or Attempted Use by an Athlete of a Prohibited Substance or a

Prohibited Method 14.2.1.2.1 It is each Athlete’s personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance

enters his or her body. 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.

14.2.1.2.2 The success or failure of the 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.

14.2.1.3 Refusing or failing without compelling justification to submit to Sample

collection after notification as authorised in these anti-doping rules, or otherwise evading Sample collection

14.2.1.4 Violation of applicable requirements regarding Athlete availability for

Out-of-Competition Testing set out in the International Standard for Testing, including failure to file whereabouts information in accordance with Article 11.3 of the International Standard for Testing (a “Filing Failure”) and failure to be available for Testing at the declared whereabouts in accordance with Article 11.4 of the International Standard for Testing (a “Missed Test”). Any combination of three missed tests and/or filing failures committed within an eighteen-month period, as declared by FSI or any other Anti-Doping Organisation with jurisdiction over an Athlete shall constitute an anti-doping rule violation.

14.2.1.5 Tampering or Attempted Tampering with any part of Doping Control 14.2.1.6 Possession of Prohibited Substances and methods



14.2.1.6.1 Possession by an Athlete In-Competition of any Prohibited Method or any

Prohibited Substance, or Possession by an Athlete Out-of-Competition of any Prohibited Method or any Prohibited Substance which is prohibited in Out-of-Competition Testing unless the Athlete establishes that the Possession is pursuant to a Therapeutic Use Exemption (“TUE”) granted in accordance with Article 14.4.2 (Therapeutic Use) or other acceptable justification.

14.2.1.6.2 Possession by Athlete Support Personnel In-Competition of any

Prohibited Method or any Prohibited Substance, or Possession by Athlete Support Personnel Out-of-Competition of any Prohibited Method or any Prohibited Substance which is prohibited Out-of-Competition, in connection with an Athlete, Competition or training, unless the Athlete Support Personnel establishes that the Possession is pursuant to a TUE granted to an Athlete in accordance with Article 14.4.2 (Therapeutic Use) or other acceptable justification.

14.2.1.7 Trafficking or Attempted Trafficking in any Prohibited Substance or

Prohibited Method 14.2.1.8 Administration or Attempted administration to any Athlete In-Competition of

any Prohibited Method or Prohibited Substance, or administration or Attempted administration to any Athlete Out-of-Competition of any Prohibited Method or any Prohibited Substance that is prohibited Out-of-Competition, or assisting, encouraging, aiding, abetting, covering up or any other type of complicity involving an anti-doping rule violation or any Attempted anti-doping rule violation.

14.3 Proof of Doping 14.3.1 Burdens and standards of proof

The FISU shall have the burden of establishing that an anti-doping rule violation has occurred. The standard of proof shall be whether the FISU has established an anti-doping rule violation to the comfortable satisfaction of the hearing panel bearing in mind the seriousness of the allegation that is made. This standard of proof in all cases is greater than a mere balance of probability but less than proof beyond a reasonable doubt. Where the Code places the burden of proof upon the Athlete or other Person alleged to have committed an anti-doping rule violation to rebut a presumption or establish specified facts or circumstances, the standard of proof shall be by a balance of probability.

14.3.2 Methods of establishing facts and presumptions

Fact related to anti-doping rule violations may be established by any reliable means, including admissions. The following rules of proof shall be applicable in doping cases:



14.3.2.1 WADA-accredited laboratories are presumed to have conducted Sample analysis and custodial procedures in accordance with the International Standard for Laboratories. The Athlete or other Person may rebut this presumption by establishing that a departure from the International Standard occurred which could reasonably have caused Adverse Analytical Finding.

If the Athlete or other Person rebuts the preceding presumption by showing that a departure from the International Standard occurred which could reasonably have caused the Adverse Analytical Finding, then, the FISU shall have the burden to establish that such departure did not cause the Adverse Analytical Finding.

14.3.2.2 Departures from any other International Standard or other anti-doping rule

or policy which did not cause an Adverse Analytical Finding or other anti-doping rule violation shall not invalidate such results. If the Athlete or other Person establishes that a departure from another International Standard or other anti-doping rule or policy which could reasonably have caused the Adverse Analytical Finding or other anti-doping rule violation occurred, then the FISU shall have the burden to establish that such departures did not cause the Adverse Analytical Finding or the factual basis for the anti-doping rule violation.

14.3.2.3 The facts established by a decision of a court or professional disciplinary

tribunal of competent jurisdiction which is not the subject of a pending appeal shall be irrefutable evidence against the Athlete or other Person to whom the decision pertained of those facts unless the Athlete or other Person establishes that the decision violated principles of natural justice.

14.3.2.4 The hearing panel in a hearing on an anti-doping rule violation may draw an

inference adverse to the Athlete or other Person who is asserted to have committed an anti-doping rule violation based on the Athlete’s or other Person’s refusal, after a request made in a reasonable time in advance of the hearing, to appear at the hearing (either in person or telephonically as directed by the tribunal) and to answer questions either from the hearing panel or from the Anti-Doping Organisation asserting the anti-doping rule violation.

14.4 The Prohibited List 14.4.1 Prohibited Substances and Prohibited Methods The list of doping substances and methods is the current WADA Prohibited

List. The Prohibited List in force is available on WADA’s website at: www.wada-ama.org. It is the Athlete’s responsibility to know and understand the list.

14.4.1.1 Specified substances For the purposes of sanctions which may be imposed by other government

bodies, all Prohibited Substances shall be “Specified Substances” except (a) substances in the classes of anabolic agents and hormones; and (b) those



stimulants and hormone antagonists and modulators so identified on the Prohibited List. Prohibited Methods shall not be specified substances.

14.4.2 Therapeutic Use 14.4.2.1 Athletes with a documented medical condition requiring the Use of a

Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method must first obtain a TUE. The presence of a Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers, Use or Attempted Use of a Prohibited Substance or a Prohibited Method, Possession of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Methods or administration of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method consistent with the provisions of an applicable TUE issued pursuant to the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions shall not be considered an anti-doping rule violation.

14.4.2.2 Athletes participating in any FISU Event who require a TUE should obtain it

from their respective FSI, FSN, RADO or NADO. The application for a TUE must be made as soon as possible (as soon as s/he is notified of his/her selection to participate in a FISU Event) and in any Event (save in emergency situations) no later than 21 days before the Athlete’s participation in the Event. This also applies to inhaled glucocorticoids, formoterol, salbutamol, salmeterol, and terbutaline used for treatment of asthma or one of its clinical variants.

14.4.2.3 FISU shall appoint a panel of physicians from the FISU Medical Committee

to consider, in exceptional circumstances, requests from Athletes participating in FISU Events for TUE’s. These, if granted, will be valid only for the duration of that Event. These applications must be made using ADAMS. TUE’s granted by the FSI or FISU shall be reported to the Athlete's National University Sports Federation and to WADA.

14.4.2.4 WADA, at the request of an Athlete or on its own initiation, may review the

granting or denial of any TUE to an international level Athlete or a national level Athlete that is included in a registered Testing pool. If WADA determines that the granting or denial of a Therapeutic Use Exemption did not comply with the International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions in force at the time then WADA may reverse that decision. Decisions on Therapeutic Use Exemption's are subject to further appeal as provided in Article 14.14.

14.5 Selection of Athletes 14.5.1 A reasonable number of Athletes shall be tested in all sports in which it is

required by regulations of the appropriate International Sports Federation. Out-of-Competition as well as Target Testing may be applied to Athletes

participating at any time during the Event period. 14.5.2 The total number of Athletes to be tested per day in each sport shall be

agreed upon by the Medical Committee in cooperation with the Organising



Committee. The available laboratory capacity and the requirements of the appropriate FSI should always be taken into account. The FISU Medical Committee shall determine the special criteria and procedures for selecting the individual Athletes to be Tested, but no details shall be disclosed prior to the Competition.

14.5.3 The Athletes to be tested shall include at least one medallist, a representative

of a medal winning team and any Athlete who establishes or breaks a Universiade or World University Championship record.

14.5.4 Selection of the Athletes who are to be Tested shall be made before the end

of the Competition or the match according to the procedure decided by the designated Medical Committee member. This selection shall be carried out by random testing or by taking into account the rules of the appropriate FSI.

14.5.5 An Athlete may be the subject of Doping Control on more than one (1)

occasion during FISU Events. 14.5.6 It is the responsibility of the Doping Control Officer appointed by the

Organising Committee to notify the selected Athletes. 14.5.7 Out-of-Competition Tests may take place during FISU Events if approved by

the FISU Medical Committee. 14.5.8 Athlete Whereabouts Requirements 14.5.8.1 Athletes participating in the FISU Event are required to provide accurate

whereabouts information during the Event. If the Athlete is not a part of the pool of the respective International Sports Federation or the National Anti-Doping Organisation, this information will be given directly to FISU.

14.5.8.2 Any Athlete who fails to be available for Testing three (3) Attempts during

the FISU Event shall be considered to have committed an anti-doping rule violation pursuant to Article 14.2.1.4. For each Attempt, the Doping Control Officer shall visit all locations during the times specified by the Athlete for that date and shall stay two hours at each location, unless the Doping Control Officer received clear and reliable information that the Athlete will not come to that location during the two (2) hour period.

14.5.8.3 Whereabouts information provided pursuant to Article 14.5.8 shall be

shared with WADA and other Anti-Doping Organisations having jurisdiction to Test an Athlete on the strict condition that it be used only for Doping Control purposes.

14.5.9 The Chair, the members of the Medical Committee and the Organising

Committee shall ensure that the Athlete selection decisions are not disclosed to any unauthorised Person before notification of the selected Athletes.



14.6 Sample-Taking Procedure 14.6.1 Immediately after the Competition or after the determination of the final

results, the Athlete selected for a Doping Control shall be handed a Notification Form by a Doping Control Officer or his/her representative (Chaperone) and asked to report as soon as possible to the designated Doping Control Station. The Athlete must bring his/her accreditation card to the Doping Control Station designated on the form.

14.6.2 Upon presentation of the Notification Form, the Chaperone shall enter the

time of notification and the Athlete shall sign the Notification Form. 14.6.3 In Out-of-Competition Testing, the Athlete has to report to the designated

Doping Control Station immediately. 14.6.4 If the Athlete refuses to sign the Notification Form or should the Athlete fail to

report to the Doping Control Station within a reasonable time, the facts shall be noted on the Doping Control Form. The DCO shall decide whether to process a possible failure to comply. However, if the test is possible, it shall still be carried out.

14.6.5 From the time of notification for a Doping Control until provision of the

Sample, the Athlete shall be escorted to the designated Doping Control Station by a Person authorised by the Organising Committee or FISU in such a way that the Athlete is always within sight and not able to manipulate the Sample to be given.

14.6.6 Should the Athlete be required to leave the Doping Control Station, s/he will

have to be observed at all times by a Chaperone. 14.6.7 Upon arrival at the Doping Control Station, the Athlete and the accompanying

Person shall be attended in the waiting room by a member of the Doping Control team. The time of arrival and the personal data of the Athlete shall be noted on the Doping Control Form.

14.6.8 The Doping Control Officer shall check the identity of the Athlete by means of

the accreditation card. 14.6.9 The Athlete may be searched for evidence of possible manipulation of the

urine Sample while in the Doping Control Station. 14.6.10 In addition to the Athlete and the accompanying Persons, only authorised

Persons may be present in the Doping Control Station. Usually they will be: • Doping Control Officer(s); • Member(s) of the FISU Medical Committee; • Chaperones; • Interpreters; • WADA independent observers



No representative of the press, television, radio, etc. may be permitted to be present in the Doping Control Station.

14.6.11 The actions for collection of the urine Sample will take the following course:

e) When the Athlete indicates s/he is ready to provide a urine Sample, the Doping Control Officer shall ensure that the Athlete is informed about his/her rights and responsibilities and the Sample collection process.

f) The Athlete shall select a sealed collection container with which s/he is satisfied. If the Athlete is not satisfied with a container, s/he shall select another one. If the Athlete is not satisfied with any containers and no other containers are available, this should be noted on the Doping Control Form and the Doping Control Officer shall instruct the Athlete to proceed with the test. However, if the Doping Control Officer and Medical Committee member agree with the reasons put forward by the Athlete that all available containers do not meet specifications, the Doping Control Officer shall terminate the test and this should be noted in the Doping Control Officer Report Form.

g) The Athlete shall retain control of the collection container and any Sample provided until the Sample is sealed. A Doping Control Officer and/or a Chaperone may handle the collection vessel only if authorised to do so by the Athlete.

h) The Chaperone and the Athlete shall proceed to the toilet area to collect a Sample.

i) The Chaperone shall directly witness the passing of the Sample by the Athlete.

j) Once the Athlete has completed passing the Sample, the Athlete and Chaperone shall immediately return to the Doping Control Officer who will oversee the processing and sealing of the Sample.

k) The Chaperone who witnessed the passing of the Sample shall sign the Doping Control Form to verify that the Athlete passed the Sample.

l) The Doping Control Officer shall ensure that the volume of the urine Sample satisfies laboratory requirements for analysis in full view of the Athletes.

m) Where the volume of urine is insufficient, a partial Sample collection procedure shall be conducted.

n) Where there is Suitable Volume of Urine for Analysis, the Athlete shall select a urine kit with which s/he is satisfied and in which the Sample will be sealed. If the Athlete is not satisfied with the urine kit, s/he shall select another kit until satisfied. If the Athlete is not satisfied with any urine kits and no others are available, this should be noted on the Doping Control Form and the Doping Control Officer shall instruct the Athlete to proceed with the test. However, if the Doping Control Officer and Medical Committee member agree with the reasons put forward by Athlete that all available urine kits do not meet specifications; the Doping Control Officer shall terminate the test and inform the Chair of the Medical Committee.

o) Once a urine kit has been selected, the Doping Control Officer and Athlete shall check the kit to determine that it is suitable. If after this



inspection, the kit is considered unsuitable by the Doping Control Officer, the Athlete shall be asked to select another kit. If no additional kits are available, the Doping Control Officer shall terminate the test and no Sample shall be secured.

p) The Athlete shall open the kit; pour at least the prescribed minimum volumes of urine into the A and B bottles.

q) The Doping Control Officer shall confirm that the Sample satisfies

laboratory requirements for analyses by testing the Specific Gravity of the Residual Volume of urine remaining in the collection container.

r) The Athlete shall then seal the bottles as directed by the Doping Control Officer.

s) The Athlete and his/her representative will be asked to offer any comments or concerns about the Doping Control procedure in writing on the Doping Control Form.

t) The Doping Control Officer shall request the Athlete to provide information about all medication and other substances used within the last seven (7) days.

u) The Doping Control Officer shall complete the Doping Control Form. v) The Doping Control Officer, the Athlete, the Athlete’s representative (if

applicable), and any other Person where required shall then sign the Doping Control Form to verify the accuracy of the information.

w) The Doping Control Officer shall provide a copy of the Doping Control Form to the Athlete as s/he leaves the Doping Control Station.

x) The Doping Control Officer shall discard all residual urine. y) If a Chaperone observes any unusual behaviour by an Athlete while

witnessing the passing of the Sample, the Chaperone shall report that fact to the Doping Control Officer as soon as possible. The Doping Control Officer shall then follow the procedure for investigation and processing possible failures to comply.

z) If a Chaperone is unable to verify the passing of the Sample or the Chaperone reports observing unusual behaviour by the Athlete, the Doping Control Officer can require the Athlete to provide an additional Sample. If additional Samples are collected, all Samples collected shall be sent to the laboratory for analysis.

aa) If a Doping Control Officer observes an Athlete failing to comply with any direction made by the Doping Control Officer or Chaperone during the Sample collection process, the Doping Control Officer shall follow the procedure for investigating and processing possible failures to comply.

bb) If the original Sample collected does not meet the requirements for Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis (1.005 or higher with a refractometer or 1.010 or higher with lab stick), the DCO is responsible for collecting additional Samples until suitable Sample is obtained.

cc) If it is determined that none of the Athlete’s Sample meets the requirements for Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis and the DCO determines that, for logistic reasons, it is impossible to continue with the Sample collection session, the DCO may end the Sample collection



session. In such circumstances, if appropriate, the DCO may investigate a possible anti-doping regulation.

dd) The DCO shall send to the laboratory for analysis all Samples which were collected, irrespective of whether or not they meet the requirements for Suitable Specific Gravity for Analysis.

14.6.12 The Medical Committee or the Medical Committee member can locally

modify this procedure.

14.7 Transport of Samples 14.7.1 At the end of the Doping Control session or when a scheduled collection is

due, the Doping Control Officer in charge of the station will complete a Doping Control Transport Form, outlining the code numbers, the total number of Sample kits, the coded security seal for the transport bag, the site from which they came and the departure time of the Courier. The Transport Form and the corresponding laboratory copy of the Doping Control Form, which do not contain any details identifying the competitor, will be placed in an envelope that will be sealed and sent to the laboratory together with the urine Samples.

14.7.2 The Doping Control Officer in charge of the station will place the original and

a copy of the Doping Control Form, Doping Control Transport Form, Notification Form and other relevant documents in two (2) envelopes (originals in one and copies in another). The originals should be provided to the Chair of the Medical Committee or his/her representative. For security reasons, the duplicate copy shall be kept sealed in a secure and safe place by the Organising Committee until one month (1) after the designated Event.

14.7.3 The sealed transport bag(s) shall be given to the Courier upon signature of

the Doping Control Transport Form. 14.7.4 The Courier shall take the sealed transport bag(s) to the laboratory. 14.7.5 At the laboratory, a Person appointed by the Head of the laboratory shall

acknowledge receipt of the sealed transport bag(s). The Person shall document the time of arrival.

14.8 Analysis of Samples 14.8.1 The analysis of Samples shall be done in a WADA-accredited laboratory. 14.8.2 The analysis shall be carried out in accordance with the International

Standard for Laboratory analysis. 14.8.3 All Samples collected under the auspices of FISU will remain the exclusive

property of FISU. 14.8.4 All A Samples shall be analysed and the results reported in confidence to the

Chair of the Medical Committee as soon as possible, no later than forty eight



(48) hours during the Winter and Summer Universiades and World University Championships.

14.8.5 In the event that an A Sample indicates a Doping Offence, the designated

signatory of the laboratory will provide a confidential report with supporting analytical data to the Chair of the Medical Committee.

14.8.6 In the event that an A Sample is problematic or may not be analysed as to

the volume, suitability or content, the designated signatory of the laboratory will provide a confidential report to the Chair of the Medical Committee.

14.8.7 In the event that a B Sample confirmation is required, the designated

signatory of the laboratory will provide a confidential report with supporting analytical data to the Chair of the Medical Committee or his/her representative in accordance with section Results Management (Article 14.9).

14.9 Results Management 14.9.1 The results from all analyses must be sent to the Chair of the FISU Medical

Committee or his/her representative in encoded form, in a report signed by an authorised representative of the laboratory. All communication must be conducted in such a way that the results of the analyses are confidential.

Upon receipt of an A Sample Adverse Analytical Finding, the FISU Medical Committee shall conduct a review to determine whether: a) the Adverse Analytical Finding is consistent with an applicable TUE; b) there is any apparent departure from the International Standards for

Testing or International Standard for Laboratories that caused the Adverse Analytical Finding.

14.9.1.1 If the initial review does not reveal an applicable TUE or departure from the

International Standard for Testing or International Standard for Laboratories, the Chair of the Medical Committee or his/her representative shall take the following actions:

14.9.1.1.1 The Athlete and/or the National University Sports Federation to which the

Athlete belongs or his/her representative shall be informed immediately in writing of: a) the Adverse Analytical Finding; b) the anti-doping rule violated; c) his/her right to promptly request the analysis of the B Sample or failing

such request that the B Sample analysis may be deemed waived; d) the scheduled date, time and place for the B Sample analysis (which

shall be within the time period specified in the International Standard for Laboratories) if the Athlete or FISU chooses to request an analysis of the B Sample;

e) the opportunity for the Athlete and/or the Athlete’s representative to attend the B Sample opening and analysis at the scheduled date, time and place if such analysis is requested;



f) his/her right to request copies of the A and B Sample laboratory documentation package which includes information required by International Standard for Laboratories;

14.9.1.1.2 FISU shall also notify the Athlete’s NADO, FSI and WADA. 14.9.1.1.3 If FISU decides not to bring forward the Adverse Analytical Finding as an

anti-doping rule violation, it shall so notify the Athlete, the Athlete’s NADO, FSI and WADA.

14.9.1.1.4 Where requested by the Athlete or FISU, arrangements shall be made for

Testing the B Sample within the time period specified in the International Standard for Testing. An Athlete may accept the A Sample analytical result by waiving the requirement for B Sample analysis. FISU may nevertheless elect to proceed with the B Sample analysis.

14.9.1.1.5 The Athlete and/or his/her representative shall be allowed to be present at

the analysis of the B Sample within the time period specified in International Standard for Laboratories. Also a representative of the Athlete’s National University Sports Federation as well as a representative of FSI shall be allowed to be present.

14.9.1.1.6 If the B Sample proves negative then (unless FISU takes the case forward

as an anti-doping rule violation under article 14.2.1.2), the entire test shall be considered negative and the Athlete, his/her National University Sports Federation, and FSI shall be so informed. The Athlete is then able to return to Competition.

14.9.1.1.7 If a Prohibited Substance or the Use of a Prohibited Method is identified,

the Chair of the Medical Committee or his/her representative shall then, without delay, notify the Athlete, the FNSU, the FSI and WADA in writing of the Doping Offence and the appeals process. The Chair of the Medical Committee or his/her representative shall also, without delay, inform the FISU President or his representative.

14.9.1.2 In the event of Atypical Findings (as provided in the International

Standards) in some circumstances, laboratories are directed to report the presence of Prohibited Substances that may also be produced endogenously as Atypical Findings that should be investigated further; the Chair of the FISU Medical Committee shall conduct a review to determine whether:

a) the Atypical Finding is consistent with an applicable TUE that has been granted or;

b) there is any apparent departure from International Standard for Testing or International Standard for Laboratories that caused the Atypical Finding.



14.9.1.3 The Chair of the FISU Medical Committee will then carry out the necessary

investigation. After this is completed, the Athlete’s NADO, FSI and WADA shall be notified whether or not the Atypical Finding will be brought forward as an Adverse Analytical Finding.

14.9.2 Provisional Suspensions 14.9.2.1 If Analysis of an A Sample has resulted in an Adverse Analytical Finding for

a Prohibited Substance that is not a specified substance, and a review in accordance with Article 14.9.1 does not reveal an applicable TUE or departure from the International Standard for Testing or International Standard for Laboratories that caused the Adverse Analytical Finding, the FISU President may provisionally suspend the Athlete pending the hearing panel’s determination of whether s/he has committed an anti-doping rule violation.

14.9.2.2 In any case not covered by Article 14.9.2.1 where FISU decides to take the

matter forward as an apparent anti-doping rule violation in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Article, the FISU President may, after consultation with the FISU Medical Committee, provisionally suspend an Athlete pending the hearing panels determination of whether s/he has committed an anti-doping rule violation.

14.9.2.3 Where Provisional Suspension is imposed whether pursuant to Article

14.9.2.1 or Article 14.9.2.2, the Athlete shall be given either a) an opportunity for a Provisional Hearing before imposition of the Provisional Suspension or on a timely basis after imposition of the Provisional Suspension or b) an opportunity for an expedited hearing in accordance with Article 14.10 (Right to Fair Hearing) on a timely basis after imposition of a Provisional Suspension.

14.9.2.4 If a Provisional Suspension is imposed based on an Adverse Analytical

Finding in respect of an A Sample and any subsequent analysis of the B Sample does not confirm the A Sample analysis, then the Athlete shall not be subject to any further Provisional Suspension. In circumstances where the Athlete (or Athlete’s team) has been removed from a Competition based on an Adverse Analytical Finding and the subsequent B Sample analysis does not confirm the A Sample finding, if, without otherwise affecting the Competition it is still possible for the Athlete or team to be reinstated, the Athlete or team may continue to take part in the Competition.

14.9.3 The President of FISU is the ultimate disciplinary body in FISU.



14.9.4 Even when the results of the analysis become known, all details connected with the investigation are to be treated as confidential by all Persons connected with the control and the result management.

14.9.5 In the event that this process is not possible, the appropriate National

University Sports Federation will be informed and they will have to respond promptly.

14.10 Right to a Fair Hearing 14.10.1 The FISU Executive Committee will appoint a FISU Doping Hearing Panel

composed of three (3) members with experience in Doping Control. The members of the committee shall have had no prior involvement with the case and shall not have the same nationality as the Athlete or other Person alleged to have violated the anti-doping rules.

14.10.2 When it appears, following the Results Management process described in

Article 14.9 that these anti-doping rules have been violated at a FISU Event, the Athlete or his/her representative may request the case to be assigned to the FISU Doping Hearing Panel for adjudication.

14.10.3 This hearing may be conducted in writing, by e-mail, by conference call or in

Person. 14.10.4 Hearings pursuant to this Article shall be completed expeditiously following

the completion of the results management process described in Article 14.9. 14.10.5 The National University Sports Federation of the Athlete or other Person

alleged to have violated these anti-doping rules may attend the hearing as an observer.

14.10.6 The Athlete or other Person involved has the right to be represented by

counsel at the Person’s own expense. 14.10.7 FISU shall keep WADA fully apprised as to the status of pending cases and

the result of all hearings. 14.10.8 The Athlete or other Person may forego a hearing by acknowledging the

anti-doping rule violation and accepting consequences consistent with Articles 14.11 and 14.12 as proposed by FISU.

14.10.9 The FISU Doping Hearing Panel will report its results to the Chair of the

Medical Committee, the FISU President, the Athlete, the FSI, the FNSU and to WADA.

14.11 Automatic Disqualification of Individual Results 14.11.1 A violation of these anti-doping rules in individual sports in connection with

an In-Competition test automatically leads to Disqualification of the individual result obtained in that Competition with all resulting consequences, including forfeiture of any medals, points and prizes.



In sports which are not Team Sports but where awards are given to teams,

Disqualification or other disciplinary action against the team when one or more team members have committed an anti-doping rule violation shall be as provided in the applicable rules of the FSI.

14.12 Sanctions on Individuals 14.12.1 Disqualification of results in an Event during which an anti-doping rule

violation occurs. An anti-doping rule violation occurring during or in connection with an Event may lead to Disqualification of all of the Athlete's individual results obtained in that Event with all consequences, including forfeiture of all medals, points and prizes, except as provided in Article 14.12.1.1.

14.12.1.1 If the Athlete establishes that s/he bears No Fault or Negligence for the

violation, the Athlete's individual results in the other Competition shall not be Disqualified unless the Athlete's results in Competition other than the Competition in which the anti-doping rule violation occurred were likely to have been affected by the Athlete's anti-doping rule violation.

14.12.2 Ineligibility for presence, use or Attempted Use or Possession of Prohibited

Substances and Prohibited Methods

The period of Ineligibility imposed for a violation of Article 14.2.1.1 (Presence of Prohibited Substance or its Metabolites or Markers), Article 14.2.1.2 (Use or Attempted Use of Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method) or Article 14.2.1.6 (Possession of Prohibited Substances and Methods) shall be as follows, unless the conditions for eliminating or reducing the period of Ineligibility, as provided in Articles 14.12.4 and 14.12.5, or the conditions for increasing the period of Ineligibility, as provided in Article 14.12.6, are met:

First violation: Two (2) years' Ineligibility for FISU Events. Ineligibility for other Events will be determined by the appropriate FSI, NADO, RADO or National Sports Federation.

14.12.2.1 An Athlete who is declared ineligible as in article 14.12.2 may appeal to

the appropriate FSI or FSN and if the result is lessening the penalty, FISU may abide by their finding after presentation of appeals material to the FISU Medical Committee.

14.12.2.2 Admission of an anti-doping rule violation in the absence of other

evidence. Where an Athlete or other Person voluntarily admits the commission of an anti-doping rule violation before having received notice of a Sample collection which could establish an anti-doping rule violation (or, in the case of an anti-doping rule violation other than Article 14.2.1.1, before receiving first notice of the admitted violation pursuant to Article 14.9) and that admission is the only reliable evidence of the violation at



the time of admission, then the period of Ineligibility may be reduced, but not below one-half of the period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable.

14.12.2.3 Disqualification of results in Competitions subsequent to Sample

collection or commission of an anti-doping rule violation. In addition to the automatic Disqualification of the results in the Competition which produced the positive Sample under Article 14.11 (Automatic Disqualification of Individual Results), all other competitive results obtained from the date a positive Sample was collected (whether in-Competition or Out-of-Competition), or other anti-doping rule violation occurred, through the commencement of any Provisional Suspension or Ineligibility period, shall, unless fairness requires otherwise, be disqualified with all of the resulting consequences including forfeiture of any medals, points and prizes.

14.12.3 Status During Ineligibility 14.12.3.1 Prohibition against participation during Ineligibility. No Athlete or other

Person who has been declared ineligible may, during the period of Ineligibility, participate in any capacity in an Event or activity (other than authorised anti-doping education or rehabilitation programs) authorised or organised by FISU.

14.12.3.2 No Athlete who is ineligible for Competition for any reason by the

appropriate National Sports Federation or International Sports Federation will be allowed to compete in a FISU Event.

14.13 Consequences to Teams 14.13.1 If a member of a doubles team, relay team, or other team is found to have

committed a violation of these anti-doping rules during an Event, the team shall be disqualified from the Event.

14.13.2 If a member of a team is found to have committed a violation of these anti-

doping rules during an Event where a team ranking is based on the addition of individual results, the results of the Athlete committing the violation will be subtracted from the team result and replaced with the results of the next applicable team member. If by removing the Athlete's results from the team results, the number of Athletes counting for the team is less than the required number, the team shall be eliminated from the ranking.

14.13.3 Where more than one member of a team in a Team Sport has been notified

of a possible anti-doping rule violation under Article14.9 in connection with an Event, the ruling body for the Event shall conduct appropriate target Testing of the team during the Event period. If more than two members of a team in a Team Sport are found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation during an Event period, the ruling body of the Event shall impose an appropriate sanction on the team.



14.14 Appeals 14.14.1 Decisions subject to appeal

Decisions made under these anti-doping rules may be appealed as set forth below in Article 14.14.2 through 14.14.4 or as otherwise provided in these anti-doping rules. Such decisions shall remain in effect while under appeal unless the appellate body orders otherwise.

14.14.2 Appeals from decisions regarding anti-doping rule violations, consequences,

and Provisional Suspensions A decision that an anti-doping rule violation was committed, a decision imposing consequences for an anti-doping rule violation, or a decision that no anti-doping rule violation was committed; a decision that an anti-doping rule violation proceeding cannot go forward for procedural reasons (including, for example, prescription); a decision that FISU or lacks jurisdiction to rule on an alleged anti-doping rule violation or its consequences; a decision by any National Sports Federation not to bring forward an Adverse Analytical Finding or an Atypical Finding as an anti-doping rule violation, or a decision not to go forward with an anti-doping rule violation after a review under Article 14.9.1; and a decision to impose a Provisional Suspension as a result of a Provisional Hearing or otherwise in violation of Article 14.9.1 may be appealed exclusively as provided in this Article 14.14.2. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the only Person that may appeal from a Provisional Suspension is the Athlete or other Person upon whom the Provisional Suspension is imposed.

14.14.2.1 Appeals Involving international-level Athletes

In all cases arising from FISU Competitions, the decision may be appealed exclusively to the CAS in accordance with the provisions applicable before such court.

14.14.2.2 Persons entitled to appeal

In cases under Article 14.14.2.1, the following parties shall have the right to appeal to CAS: (a) the Athlete or other Person who is the subject of the decision being appealed; (b) the other party to the case in which the decision was rendered; (c) FISU and any other Anti-Doping Organisation or International Sports Federation under whose rules a sanction could have been imposed; and (d) WADA.

14.14.3 Failure to render a timely decision by FISU Where, in a particular case, FISU fails to render a decision with respect to whether an anti-doping rule violation was committed within a reasonable deadline set by WADA, WADA may elect to appeal directly to CAS as if FISU had rendered a decision finding no anti-doping rule violation. If the CAS panel determines that an anti-doping rule violation was committed and that WADA acted reasonably in electing to appeal directly to CAS, then WADA’s costs and attorneys fees in prosecuting the appeal shall be reimbursed to WADA by FISU.



Given the different circumstances of each anti-doping rule violation investigation and results management process, it is not feasible to establish a fixed time period for FISU to render a decision before WADA may intervene by appealing directly to CAS. Before taking such action, however, WADA will consult with FISU and give FISU an opportunity to explain why it has not yet rendered a decision.

14.14.4 Appeals from decisions granting or denying a Therapeutic Use Exemption

decisions by WADA reversing the grant or denial of a TUE may be appealed exclusively to CAS by the Athlete, FISU, or National Anti-Doping Organisation or other body designated by a National Sports Federation which granted or denied the exemption. Decisions to deny TUE’s, and which are not reversed by WADA, may be appealed by Athletes to CAS.

When FISU, National Anti-Doping Organisations or other bodies designated by National Sports Federations fail to take action on a properly submitted TUE application within a reasonable time, their failure to decide may be considered a denial for purposes of the appeal rights provided in this Article.

14.14.5 Time for Filing Appeals

The time to file an appeal to CAS shall be twenty-one (21) days from the date of receipt of the decision by the appealing party. The above notwithstanding, the following shall apply in connection with appeals filed by a party entitled to appeal but which was not a party to the proceedings having lead to the decision subject to appeal:

a) Within ten (10) days from notice of the decision, such party/ies shall

have the right to request from the body having issued the decision a copy of the file on which such body relied;

b) If such a request is made within the ten-day period, then the party

making such request shall have twenty-one (21) days from receipt of the file to file an appeal to CAS.

The above notwithstanding, the filing deadline for an appeal or intervention filed by WADA shall be the later of: (a) Twenty-one (21) days after the last day on which any other party in the

case could have appealed, or (b) Twenty-one (21) days after WADA’s receipt of the complete file relating

to the decision. 14.15 Confidentiality and Reporting 14.15.1 Neither FISU, its members, the relevant International Sports Federations nor

International University Sports Federation shall publicly identify Athletes whose Samples have resulted in Adverse Analytical Findings, or who were alleged to have violated other Articles of these anti-doping rules until it has



been determined in a hearing in accordance with Article 14.10 that an anti-doping rule violation has occurred, or such hearing has been waived, or the assertion of an anti-doping rule violation has not been timely challenged or the Athlete has been provisionally suspended. Once a violation of these anti-doping rules has been established, it shall be publicly reported within 20 days. FISU must also report within 20 days appeal decisions on an anti-doping rule violation. FISU shall also, within the time period for publication, send all hearing and appeal decisions to WADA.

14.15.2 In any case where it is determined, after a hearing or appeal, that the

Athlete or other Person did not commit an anti-doping rule violation, the decision may be disclosed publicly only with the consent of the Athlete or other Person who is the subject of the decision. FISU shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such consent, and if consent is obtained, shall publicly disclose the decision in its entirety or in such redacted form as the Athlete or other Person may approve.

14.15.3 Neither FISU, its members, the relevant International Sports Federations,

International University Sports Federation nor WADA accredited laboratory, nor officials of either, shall publicly comment on the specific facts of a pending case (as opposed to general description of process and science) except in response to public comments attributed to the Athlete, other Person or their representatives.

14.15.4 Recognition of decisions by FISU

Any decision of FISU or a National or International Sports Federation regarding a violation of these anti-doping rules shall be recognised by all National Sports Federations, which shall take all necessary action to render such results effective.

14.16 Recognition of Decisions by Other Organisations Subject to the right to appeal provided in Article 14.14, the Testing, TUE’s and hearing results or other final adjudications of any Signatory to the Code which are consistent with the Code and are within the Signatory’s authority, shall be recognised and respected by FISU. FISU may recognise the same actions of other bodies which have not accepted the Code if the rules of those bodies are otherwise consistent with the Code.

Where the decision of a body that has not accepted the Code is in some respects Code compliant and in other respects not Code compliant, FISU should Attempt to apply the decision in harmony with the principles of the Code. For example, if in a process consistent with the Code a non-signatory has found an Athlete to have committed an anti-doping rule violation on account of the presence of a Prohibited Substance in his body but the period of Ineligibility applied is shorter than the period provided for in the Code, then FISU should recognise the finding of an anti-doping rule violation and they should conduct a hearing consistent with Article 14.10 to determine whether the longer period of Ineligibility provided in the Code should be imposed.



14.17 Statute of Limitations

No action may be commenced under these anti-doping rules against an Athlete or other Person for a violation of an anti-doping rule contained in these anti-doping rules unless such action is commenced within eight years from the date the violation occurred.

14.18 FISU Compliance Reports to WADA The FISU will report to WADA on FISU’s compliance with the Code every second year and shall explain reasons for any noncompliance.

14.19 Amendment and Interpretation of Anti-Doping Rules 14.19.1 These anti-doping rules may be amended from time to time by the FISU

Executive Committee. 14.19.2 Except as provided in Article 14.19.5, these anti-doping regulations shall be

interpreted as an independent and autonomous text and not by reference to existing law or statutes.

14.19.3 The headings used for the various parts and Articles of these anti-doping

regulations are for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of the substance of these anti-doping regulations or to affect in any way the language of the provisions to which they refer.

14.19.4 The DEFINITIONS shall be considered an integral part of these anti-doping

regulations. 14.19.5 These anti-doping regulations have been adopted pursuant to the applicable

provisions of the Code and shall be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with applicable provisions of the Code. The comments annotating various provisions of the Code may, where applicable, assist in the understanding and interpretation of these anti-doping regulations.

14.19.6 Notice to an Athlete or other Person who is a member of a National

University Sports Federation delegation attending a FISU Competition may be accomplished by delivery of the notice to the National University Sports Federation.
