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.
Violation of applicable requirements regarding athlete availability for outof-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

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
FSI or its National Sports Federation 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 FSI or its National Sports Federation 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.

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

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

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 representative
(chaperone) and asked to report as soon as possible to the designated
doping 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 control, 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.

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.
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.

The chaperone and the athlete shall proceed to the toilet area to
collect a sample.
The chaperone shall directly witness the passing of the sample by the
athlete.
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.
The chaperone who witnessed the passing of the sample shall sign the
Doping Control Form to verify that the athlete passed the sample.
The Doping Control Officer shall ensure that the volume of the urine
sample satisfies laboratory requirements for analysis in full view of the
athletes.
Where the volume of urine is insufficient, a partial sample collection
procedure shall be conducted.
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 this should be
reported to Chair of the Medical Committee.
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.
The athlete shall open the kit; pour at least the prescribed minimum
volumes of urine into the A and B bottles.
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.
The athlete shall then seal the bottles as directed by the Doping
Control Officer.
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.
The Doping Control Officer shall request the athlete to provide
information about all medication and other substances used within the
last seven (7) days.

The Doping Control Officer shall provide a copy of the Doping Control
Form to the athlete as s/he leaves the doping control station.
The Doping Control Officer shall discard all residual urine.
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.
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 a further
sample. If additional samples are collected, all samples collected shall
be sent to the laboratory for analysis.
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.
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.
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.
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.

An athlete who is declared ineligible as in article 14.12.1.2 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.
14.12.1.3
14.12.1.4
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.
14.12.1.5
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 incompetition or out-of-competition), or other anti-doping rule violation
occurred, through the commencement of any provisional suspension or

disqualified with all of the resulting consequences including forfeiture of
any medals, points and prizes.
14.12.1.6
Status During Ineligibility
14.12.1.6.1 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.
14.12.1.6.2 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 team 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.
Secretariat FISU
181
FISU REGULATIONS

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 antidoping 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 antidoping 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,
Secretariat FISU
182
FISU REGULATIONS
Octob 2008
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 AntiDoping 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
Secretariat FISU
183
FISU REGULATIONS
Octob 2008
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 recognized 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 recognized and respected by FISU. FISU may recognize 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 recognize the finding of an anti-doping rule violation and
they should conduct a hearing consistent with Article 14.10 to determine
Secretariat FISU
184
FISU REGULATIONS
Octob 2008
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 the 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 antidoping 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.
