This page provides essential information on anti-doping policies, athlete responsibilities, and the procedures in place to ensure a drug-free sporting environment. We encourage all athletes, coaches, and stakeholders to familiarize themselves with the guidelines and access the trusted resources linked below.

​

The word doping is probably derived from the Dutch word dop, the name of an alcoholic beverage made of grape skins used by Zulu warriors in order to enhance their prowess in battle. The term became current around the turn of the 20th century, originally referring to illegal drugging of racehorses. The practice of enhancing performance through foreign substances or other artificial means, however, is as old as competitive sport itself.

​

Doping is the word used in sport when athletes use prohibited substances or methods to unfairly improve their sporting performance.

​

History of doping

​

The practice of doping in sport – the use of substances and artificial ways of enhancing performance – is possibly as old as organised sport itself. Even in Ancient Greece, athletes used special diets and stimulants to build strength, but it was not until the 1920s that it became clear that restrictions were needed on drug use in sport.

​

The first International Sport Federation to ban the use of stimulating substances was the International Association of Athletics Federations in 1928, paving the way for many other sports to follow in their footsteps. However, no testing was carried out at this time.

​

It was not until the death of Danish cyclist Knud Enemark Jensen as he took part in the Olympic Games in Rome in 1960, where the autopsy revealed traces of amphetamine, that pressure mounted for sports authorities to introduce drug testing.

​

Six years later, in 1966, the cycling and football federations (UCI and FIFA) introduced drug tests during their World Championships, pre-empting the first Olympic testing at the Grenoble Winter Games and the Olympics in Mexico, in 1968.

​

As for Gymnastics, the first in-competition doping controls were performed in 2004 by FIG and UEG, and out-of-competition testing started in 2005 by WADA.

​

Why is doping in sport prohibited?

​

The use of doping substances or doping methods to enhance performance is fundamentally wrong and is detrimental to the overall impact of sport. Drug misuse can be harmful to a gymnast’s health or to other gymnasts competing in the sport. It severely damages the integrity, image and value of sport, whether or not the motivation to use drugs is to improve performance.

To achieve integrity and fairness in sport, a commitment from gymnasts is critical, but the fans watching their favorite gymnasts competing also need to demand that gymnasts succeed.

​

Dangers of Doping

​

 

What is WADA?

 

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is the international independent organisation created in 1999 to promote, coordinate, and monitor the fight against doping in sport in all its forms.

Composed and funded equally by the sports movement and governments of the world, WADA coordinated the development and implementation of the World Anti-Doping Code (Code), the document harmonising anti-doping policies in all sports and all countries.

​

WADA is a Swiss private law Foundation. Its seat is in Lausanne, Switzerland, and its headquarters are in Montreal, Canada. WADA works towards a vision of the world that values and fosters clean sport.

International Standards (IS)

​

 

For more information on the IS, please visit the IS page on WADA’s website.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has published the 2020 List of Prohibited Substances. The list comes into effect on 01 January 2020.

​

Under the FIG Anti-Doping Rules, it is each gymnast’s personal duty to ensure that no Prohibited Substance enters his or her body.

​

Therefore, it is essential that all gymnasts and support personnel review carefully the 2020 Prohibited List, particularly in cases where they intent to use supplements or medication.

​

 

2019 Prohibited List

​

Only international level gymnasts can request an ADAMS account to submit a TUE to FIG.

Please see the FIG TUE application Process in ordre to help you to submit your TUE.

If you are an international level gymnast competing at an FIG Competition or International Event and you need to use a substance that is prohibited according to the WADA prohibited list, you need to obtain the approval of the FIG Therapeutic Use Exemption Committee (TUEC) before the use of the substance. Any TUE request to FIG has to be submitted through the ADAMS system only.

​

International level gymnasts shall apply to the following:

​

  • Gymnasts who are part of the FIG Registered Testing Pool.

  • Gymnasts with a valid FIG licence who participate in FIG International Events published on the FIG website.

 

If you are NOT an international level gymnast according to the criterias above the TUE request must be done to your National Anti-Doping Organisation.

 

If you do not have an ADAMS account and you are an international level gymnast, the first step to make, is to request one hereunder. Once your request has been submitted, the FIG Anti-doping Manager will send you an email with your ADAMS account login details.

What is ADAMS ?

​

The Anti-Doping Administration and Management System (ADAMS) was developed by WADA, in order to provide a mechanism to assist stakeholders to coordinate anti-doping activities.

​

ADAMS is a web-based database management tool that simplifies the daily activities of all stakeholders. This system allows data entry, storage, sharing and reporting. It supportsthe result management, the administration of Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUEs), the gymnast’s whereabouts information and test distribution planning.

 

Not only is it easy to use, but also it is free to WADA’s stakeholders in English and French, as well as Arabic, Bulgarian, Czech, Dutch, Finnish, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Spanish, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of the fight against doping in sport.

 

All data in ADAMS is stored in a highly secure environment and access is carefully controlled to ensure that data is available to relevant parties only.

​

  • Helpdesk support is made available 24 hours, 5 days a week, from WADA

  • Data protection : Legal Opinion on ADAMS compatibility with European Data Protection Laws

  • For more information on ADAMS, please visit ADAMS’ page on WADA’s website

 

ADAMS and FIG

 

FIG started using ADAMS since 1 January 2009 for all whereabouts submissions and TUE requests.

The transition to ADAMS is a significant and positive step forward for FIG, its NFs and most importantly the gymnasts. Gymnasts will only have to provide one set of whereabouts accessible to the relevant organizations (International Federation, WADA, NADOs). Furthermore, as ADAMS is a global system, testing programs around the world will be better coordinated, therefore giving greater confidence to gymnasts and ensuring a single system for all gymnasts to access.

​

ADAMS Primary Functions

 

ADAMS has four primary functions addressing key activities of anti-doping operations:

 

Athlete Whereabouts

 

This functionality allows athletes to enter information about their location from anywhere in the world; and those without Web access may designate a representative such as their ADO to enter the information for them.

​

TUE Management

​

ADAMS allows for online management and storage of TUE requests and decisions.

Information Clearinghouse

 

The clearinghouse is where data is stored, in particular laboratory results, Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) authorizations and anti-doping rule violations. It permits the sharing of information among the relevant organizations and guarantees that anti-doping activities are performed with the highest level of transparency.

 

Doping Control Platform

 

The ADAMS doping control database provided to ADOs is an essential tool for managing a doping control program, both in- and out-of-competition. Stakeholders can use ADAMS to plan, coordinate, and order tests, as well as manage test results.

Release Notes


Release Notes shows all the changes and updates that were made at each new ADAMS version.

Anti-doping rule violations are not restricted to the use of prohibited substances and/or methods.
 

Apart from positive doping tests, any and all infringements hereunder are considered to be infringements to the Anti-Doping Rules and are sanctioned by a suspension or another disciplinary sanction:
 

  • Presence of a prohibited substance in the sample collected on a gymnast.

  • Use or attempted use of a prohibited substance or method

  • Evading, refusing or failing to submit to a test after notification

  • Violation of requirements applicable as to whereabouts of gymnasts and missed tests

  • Tampering or attempted tampering with any part of doping control

  • Possession of a prohibited substance or method

  • Trafficking or attempted trafficking of a prohibited substance or method

  • Administration or attempted administration of a prohibited substance or method to a gymnast

  • Complicity implying an anti-doping rule violation

  • Prohibited association with a member of the entourage under sanction

Consequences of Doping, including Sanctions, Consequences on health and Social consequences
 

An athlete runs very high risks by consuming doping substances or by using prohibited methods. This may result in very severe health but also financial, legal and social consequences.


Medical consequences


Physical health: depending on the substance, the dosage and the consumption frequency, doping products may have particularly negative side effects on health. Some damages for the body are irreversible and may lead that the athlete’s life be in great danger.


Psychological health: some doping substances may not be detrimental to the body but exercise an impact on mental health. It was scientifically evidenced that anxiety, obsessive disorders or psychosis are direct consequences from doping.


Social Consequences


The existence of an athlete who was held guilty for doping may be completely disrupted. Indeed, doping may represent a danger for the health but it may also be prejudicial to the fame, respect and creditworthiness. Even future negative findings are regularly questioned by the media and the entourage. The poor image will remain in the collective unconscious and the athlete will remain isolated.


Financial consequences


As regards high-performance sport, an infringement of anti-doping rules often leads to a loss of income, the reimbursement of prize moneys and of the sponsorship money. An athlete suspended for several years, or even life-banned, cannot earn his/her living as usual and can even be forced into debts to live on a day-to-day basis.

The stages of the doping control:

  • A urine or blood sample can be collected on a gymnast anytime and anywhere for doping control.

  • The gymnast will be notified by a doping control officer (DCO) or chaperone appointed for the doping control. The gymnast

  • will be asked to sign a form confirming that he/she understands his/her rights and responsibilities.

  • The gymnast will report to the doping control station as soon as possible.

  • The gymnast will choose a collection vessel from the selection provided.

  • The gymnast will provide a minimum amount of 90 ml of urine.

  • The gymnast will disrobe from knees to navel and from his/her hands to elbow to provide an unobstructed view of the passing of the sample.

  • A DCO or chaperone (of the same gender as the gymnast) will observe the gymnast during the sample production.

  • The gymnast will choose a sample collection kit from the selection provided. He/she will split the sample in the A and B bottles. Start by pouring urine up to the line in the B bottle and then fill the A bottle and leave a small portion in the collection vessel.

  • The gymnast must seal the A and B bottles.

  • The DCO will measure the specific gravity of the sample to ensure it is not too diluted to analyze. If it is too diluted, the gymnast may be required to provide additional samples.

  • The gymnast will complete the doping control form by :

    • Providing personal information.

    • Noting any substances he/she may be taking, prescription medication, over the counter medication and supplements.

    • Noting concerns or comments, if he/she has any, about the doping control.

    • Confirming the information, recorded numbers and sample code are correct.

    • Signing and receiving his/her copy of the doping control form.

  • Samples will be sent to a WADA accredited laboratory in strict confidentiality and will be tracked to ensure their security.

  • The A sample will be analyzed and the B sample will be securely stored for a further testing if required. The laboratory will send the results to the responsible anti-doping organization (ADO) and WADA.

Rights and Responsibilities of the Gymnasts and of their Entourage

​

WHAT DO GYMNASTS AND GYMNAST SUPPORT PERSONNEL NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ANTI-DOPING?

​

“Every gymnast has the right to clean sport!”

​

Any gymnast may be tested in- and out-of-competition, anytime, anywhere and with no advance notice.

​

The principle of strict liability applies in anti-doping – if it is in the gymnast’s body, the gymnast is responsible for it.

 

Gymnasts’ responsibilities include (but are not limited to):

​

  • Complying with the FIG’s Anti-Doping Rules (in line with the World Anti-Doping Code and its International Standards);

  • Produce appropriate identification;

  • Being available for sample collection (urine or blood), whether in-competition or out-of-competition;

  • Ensuring that no prohibited substance enters his body and that no prohibited method is used;

  • Making sure that any treatment is not prohibited according to the Prohibited List in force and checking this with the prescribing physicians, or directly with FIG if necessary;

  • Applying to FIG (or national anti-doping organization if the gymnast is a national level athlete) if no alternative permitted treatment is possible and a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) is required

  • Reporting immediately for sample collection after being notified of a doping control;

  • Ensuring the accuracy of the information entered on the doping control form during sample collection (including stating any medications and supplements taken within the seven days prior to sample collection, and where the sample collected is a blood sample, blood transfusions within the previous three months);

  • Complying with sample collection procedures (failure to do so may constitute an anti-doping rule violation);

  • Reporting immediately for doping control unless there are compelling reasons for a delay.

  • Cooperating with anti-doping organizations investigating anti-doping rules violations (ADRVs); and

  • Not working with coaches, trainers, physicians or other gymnast support personnel who are ineligible on account of an ADRV or who have been criminally convicted or professionally disciplined in relation to doping (see WADA’s Prohibited Association List)

 

Note: during doping control, the gymnast must remain within direct observation of the Doping Control Officer (DCO) or chaperone at all times from when the initial contact is made until the completion of the sample collection procedure. The gymnast must also produce identification upon request.

 

Gymnasts’ rights include (but are not limited to):

​

  • during the doping control:

    • bringing a representative and, if available, an interpreter;

    • asking for additional information about the sample collection process;

    • requesting a delay in reporting to the doping control station for valid reasons (International Standard for Testing and Investigations Art. 5.4.4); and requesting modifications for gymnasts with impairments (if applicable).

    • requesting and attending the B sample analysis (in the case of an Adverse Analytical Finding); and

  • in the case of an Anti-Doping Rule Violation (ADRV) being asserted, the gymnast has the right to a fair hearing and the right to appeal the hearing decision.

Extreme caution is recommended regarding supplement use. Neither WADA nor FIG is involved in any supplement certification process and therefore do not certify or endorse manufacturers or their products. WADA and FIG do not control the quality or the claims of the supplements industry.
 

The use of dietary supplements by gymnasts is a serious concern because in many countries the manufacturing and labeling of supplements do not follow strict rules, which may lead to a supplement containing an undeclared substance that is prohibited under anti-doping regulations. A significant number of positive tests have been attributed to the misuse of supplements and attributing an Adverse Analytical Finding to a poorly labeled dietary supplement is not an adequate defense in a doping hearing.
 

Companies producing nutritional supplements are not ruled by very strict regulations. In other words, one never exactly knows the supplement’s composition.
 

The risks of taking supplements should be weighed against the potential benefit that may be obtained, and gymnasts must appreciate the negative consequences of an Anti-Doping Rule Violation as a result of taking a contaminated supplement.
 

Use of supplement products that have been subjected to one of the available quality assurance schemes can help to reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of an inadvertent doping infringement.

Doping is fundamentally contrary to the spirit of sport.
 

The anti-doping program aims at preserving the intrinsic value of sport. This intrinsic value is often described as the “spirit of sport”, it is the essence of Olympism, the pursuit of human excellence through dedicated perfection of each person’s natural talents. It is how we play true. The spirit of sport is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind and it is reflected in values we find in and through sport, including:
 

  • ethics, fair play and honesty

  • health

  • excellence in performance

  • character and education

  • fun and joy

  • teamwork

  • dedication and commitment

  • respect for rules and laws

  • respect for self and others

  • courage

  • community and solidarity

RTP
 

The RTP means Registered Testing Pool and is the list composed of top level Gymnasts established by the FIG. Each National Federation or National Anti-doping Organization (NADO) may also establish their own RTPs.


The FIG recognizes that effective Out-of-Competition Testing (OOCT) programme is essential to the fight against doping in sport. It also recognizes that effective OOCT depends upon accurate and complete gymnasts’ whereabouts information.


As a result, the Code and the FIG Anti-doping Rules require Gymnasts in Registered Testing Pools :

to provide detailed information, on a quarterly basis, about their whereabouts in the following quarter.
to be available at those whereabouts for Out-of-Competition Testing.


If an Athlete in a Registered Testing Pool fails to meet those requirements 3 or more times in any 12-month period, he/she commits an anti-doping rule violation under Code Article 2.4, and is liable to be banned from sport for a period of between 12 and 24 months (or more if it is a repeat offence).


RTP inclusion criteria


The criteria is updated at least every year and gymnasts concerned as well as their respective National Federations are duly informed of their inclusion or removal from the RTP. FIG may add any gymnast in the RTP at any time, and the selection criteria may also be amended as needed by the FIG.


Testing program


Of course, to be able to maintain a clean sport and deter eventual cheaters, the anti-doping department at FIG must conduct tests. All the information provided in these pages relate by far or close to testing Gymnasts. There are two types of tests that can be conducted.


Out-of-competition Testing Program


As it name says, this program aims to test Gymnasts with no-advance notice while they are not competing, when they are training, resting, working, etc. To be able to test Gymnasts Out-of-competition, FIG must be provided with Whereabouts from a selected number of top-level Gymnasts (RTP, previously described in this page) through ADAMS. However, any Gymnast can be tested out-of-competition, even if he or she is not listed in the RTP.


In-competition Testing Program


Tests are also conducted during a competition. Gymnasts can be chosen to be tested for several reasons :

  • They may be drawn from a sub-division, a group or from the entire competition participants list.

  • They may be selected depending on their placing in a single competition day or on the final ranking (medals).

  • They may be targeted for testing for any reason ranging from sudden performance improvement, significant world ranking progress, noticeable physical shape change, to previous atypical findings, or for any other reason the FIG may have.


In-competition tests are mandatory at all FIG World Championships, FIG World Cups and Major Events (Olympic Games, World Games, Continental Games, Universiades, etc.).


The FIG is responsible for managing the results of its own Events (World Championships and World Cups), as well as Continental Championships events.

What are whereabouts?
 

Whereabouts are information provided by a limited number of top elite athletes about their location to the International Sport Federation (IF) or National Anti-Doping Organisation (NADO) that included them in their respective registered testing pool (RTP) as part of these top elite athletes’ anti-doping responsibilities.
 

Why are whereabouts important for clean sport?


Because out-of-competition doping controls can be conducted without notice to athletes, they are one of the most powerful means of deterrence and detection of doping and are an important step in strengthening athlete and public confidence in doping-free sport.


Who needs to provide whereabouts and how to provide them?


Those gymnasts nominated by the FIG through the FIG RTP List (or their NF through the National RTP List) will be asked to provide up-to-date whereabouts information to ensure they can be tested at anytime and anywhere at no notice. The importance of filing whereabouts is a key element for the gymnasts to fulfill their obligations of the WADA Code and the FIG Anti-Doping Rules.


Since 1 January 2009, the FIG made the use of ADAMS mandatory for all whereabouts submissions and TUEs applications. For more information about ADAMS, consult the ADAMS menu on FIG website.


Gymnasts must ensure that they keep their athlete whereabouts information up to date at all times. They can have their agent or another representative submit their whereabouts information if they wish to.


However, athletes are ultimately responsible for their whereabouts. As a result, they cannot avoid responsibility by blaming their representative for filing inaccurate information about their whereabouts or for not updating their whereabouts if they were not at the location specified by them during the 60-minute time-slot.


In order to delegate the task, gymnasts have to request an Athlete Agent account to FIG (contact Loic Vidmer at lvidmer@fig-gymnastics.org).
 

Where can whereabouts rules be found ?


Whereabouts rules are part of the International Standard for Testing (IST). The IST is mandatory for Anti-Doping Organisations (ADOs, including IFs, NADOs, major Games organisers, etc.) that have adopted the World Anti-Doping Code (the document harmonising anti-doping rules in all sports).


Good to know


Filing Failures (FFs) can be gained from Missed Tests and Whereabouts Failures (failure to provide sufficient information or not provide information on time) – three FFs over a 12-month period constitute a possible anti-doping rule violation. Such a violation brings with it a sanction of between one and two years ineligibility depending on the gymnast’s degree of fault.


Testing can be conducted at anytime, in or outside the one-hour slot. However, ‘missed tests’ will not be applicable for unsuccessful attempts outside the one-hour slot. Gymnasts may submit last minutes modifications by SMS.


For more information on whereabouts, please consult the WADA Questions and Answers on Whereabouts.

For gymnasts listed in the RTP who decide to retire from competition must inform FIG and must therefore send the Retirement Notification Form duly completed. The gymnasts’ licence will thereafter be cancelled and the gymnast will also be withdrawn from the FIG RTP with immediate effect.
 

RTP gymnasts, who had given notice of retirement to FIG, may come back to competition 6 months after the return to competition notification (Return to Competition Form) and after having been on the FIG RTP for at least six (6) months.
 

Please consult Article 5.11.1 FIG Anti-Doping Rules.

How can we better fight against doping?

​

We are convinced that the long-term solution to preventing doping is through effective prevention and clean sport values-based education programmes. This way we can altogether create a strong anti-doping culture.

 

There are a few online education programmes, created by WADA and made available by the FIG, meant for gymnasts, coaches, national federations, parents or any other person wishing to know more about the anti-doping world. You can find these programmes below with a short introduction, and we invite you to use them actively!

 

Alpha

 

The Athlete Learning Program about Health and Anti-Doping (ALPHA) has been developed with the input of eLearning specialists, athletes, anti-doping specialists and anti-doping social scientists. It was officially launched at the ADO Symposium, in Lausanne on 25-26 March 2014.

 

Based on the latest findings in Social Science Research and learning technology, the aim of this tool is to change attitudes and therefore have an impact on those who intend to dope. Therefore, if effective, the tool will potentially reduce doping behavior amongst athletes who are already doping, or prevent other athletes from doing so at all. If the intention of the learner was not to dope, the tool provides all the necessary information for an athlete and reinforces the protective factors.

 

The uniqueness of this tool lies in its ability to provide positive solutions to athletes to stay clean. By studying all the performance-related areas, such as rest and recovery, training, nutrition and helping athletes to identify where they could do better, the tool shifts the focus away from what athletes are not allowed to do to instead providing athletes with solutions to allow continued progression in a clean way. The tool also allows athletes to recognize when they are in situations which put them at risk of doping, and provides them with ready-made solutions to resist pressures to dope.

 

ALPHA’s effectiveness can be measured through the provision of information, whereby knowledge is measured through pre- and post-tests, and pre- and post-tests that measure all predictions of doping intention. This includes self-efficacy, subjective norms, perceived control, beliefs and willingness. The measurement of effectiveness will allow for evaluation and, therefore, the program’s continuous improvement.

 

Once a pre-test is complete, the learner is then taken through a short introduction explaining the learning process.

 

The first six sessions included in the program are based on the same structure. A motivational scenario is presented, placing the learner in a position where he/she has to help a teammate solve a problem. The learner is then provided with material such as a tutorial and other information/resources, and a moral reasoning activity. This allows the learner to help his/her teammates, by explaining the “how” and “why” of the solution.

​

The six sessions are :

​

  • Ethical Reasons not to Dope

  • Medical Reasons not to Dope

  • The Doping Control Process

  • Rights and Responsibilities

  • TUEs

  • Whereabouts

 

The final two sessions of the program concentrate on providing athletes with positive solutions to enhance performance, and ways to identify risk factors. The use of video messages from the WADA Athlete Committee members is expected to have a strong impact, as it is a use of peer-to-peer education. The message does not emanate from authorities, but from fellow experienced athletes.

With booster sessions proven to increase effectiveness, a reminder will be sent by email six months after the completion of the program.

 

CoachTrue

 

The FIG promotes the use of this program called CoachTrue, which is an online learning tool that will allow coaches to learn more about the fight against doping, and thus be more effective in preventing it. This software was developed by WADA, it provides a platform for coaches of elite athletes, and a platform dedicated to recreational sports coaches.

 

The following features are included in the elite-level module of CoachTrue :

 

Pre-Test: Allows coaches to identify current knowledge base

 

Tutorials: A series of presentations with voice-overs that provide essential information on the following topics:

​

  • Health consequences of doping

  • Accountability

  • Results management

  • Therapeutic use exemptions

  • Whereabouts

  • Decision making

 

Scenario-Based Activities: Practical application of acquired knowledge to possible real-life scenarios.

Who Wants to Play True: A fun way for coaches to test their knowledge of anti-doping issues.

​

Post-Test and Certification: Once coaches have completed all required elements, including a final assessment of learning (post-test), they are awarded a certificate of completion.

 

Play True Quiz

 

WADA’s Play True Quiz is an interactive computer game that tests athletes’ knowledge about anti-doping. An integral element of its Outreach Program, WADA devoted considerable resources to the development of the interactive computer game which has been showcased at major events including the Olympics, Paralympics and many world championships.

 

The Quiz is currently available in 26 languages.

 

Play True Challenge

​

  • Play True Challenge is a computer simulation that was launched during the first Youth Olympic Games, in Singapore, in August 2010.

  • Play True Challenge has two sides: sport and life.

  • Play True Challenge is currently available in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Russian.
