Sanctions
There is consistency of sanctions globally in accordance with the World-Anti Doping Code. The most common consequence of committing an ADRV is a ban from sport. In some cases, this could be for life. Others include, forfeiting medals, titles, erasure of records, etc.
If an athlete involved in a team sport is found to have committed an ADRV, there may be implications for the entire team. If more than two team members are found to have committed an ADRV during a competition, the national federation and/or organizing body shall impose appropriate sanctions.
