New DA Anti-Doping Policy, effective 1 January 2015

Published Wed 14 Jan 2015

IMPORTANT! Please note that Diving Australia has a new Anti-Doping Policy, effective from 1 January 2015. A copy of this can be found here. This policy reflects recent changes to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Code, the Fédération Internationale de Natation (FINA) Doping Control Rules, and Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) legislation.

The DA Anti-Doping Policy applies to all DA members, and is separate to the DA Illicit Drugs in Sport Policy. Under the DA Anti-Doping Policy, ASADA officials will continue drug testing and leading investigations as normal on behalf of DA, in connection with detecting consumption of prohibited performance-enhancing substances.

Please read this new policy to ensure you understand how it applies to you.
