WELCOME TO DOPING CONTROL
Doping Control rules are in place for all active athletes, registered under the Singapore Swimming Association (SSA), as we advocate a tough stance against the use of drugs in sport.
All competing athletes at major competitions may be subjected to anti-doping testing, regardless of your position in a race. Athletes may be tested anywhere – at home, during training or at competition venues, by accredited Doping Control Officers (DCOs) from Anti-Doping Singapore (ADS).
Doping Control rules can be confusing for athletes, coaches and parents, and it is critical that any questions/concerns be clarified. Hence, the information presented here is to help simplify and clarify any concerns you might have about doping control.
At all times, athletes must check the status and be mindful of
all medication
taken/used in the course of their active time in the sport. Do remember to declare any medication that you have taken (up to 2 weeks prior), in the medication section of any Doping Control Form that you fill in when you have been identified to provide a sample.
Also, for ADS to track athletes easily, all athletes must fill in their whereabouts in the Anti-Doping Administration & Management System (ADAMS). Athletes in the Registered Testing Pool (RTP) may incur anti-doping violations and subsequent sanctions, if they do not provide accurate and updated whereabouts information. You can login to ADAMS at
ADAMS Log-in
Whereabout failures
It is the responsibility of athletes in the RTP to ensure that their whereabouts information is kept updated and accurate at all times.
Missed Tests
If an athlete is unavailable for testing when an Anti-Doping Organisation attempts to test them during the specific 60-minute slot as provided by the athlete, then a Missed Test may be recorded.
Filing Failures
If an athlete fails to provide and update the required Whereabouts information, then a Filing Failure may be recorded.
Any combination of three Missed Test(s) and/ or Filing Failure(s) within a 12-month period will constitute an Anti-Doping Rule Violation. The period of sanction is between one to two years, depending on the athlete's degree of fault.
Retirement and Reinstatement
Athletes in the RTP or DTP who intend to retire from active competition must inform ADS officially using the
ADS Athlete Retirement Notification Form
.
Athletes, who had previously retired whilst in the RTP or DTP and intends to return to active competition, must provide official notification to ADS and their NSA at least 6 months before returning to competition.
