Athletes’ responsibilities

FIB expects all athletes to support doping-free bandy and to be aware of these responsibilities and comply with them:

  • To be knowledgeable of and comply with all applicable anti-doping rules.
  • To be available for doping control at all times.
  • To take responsibility, in the context of antidoping, for what they ingest and use, and be aware of the risks with poorly controlled food supplements.
  • To inform medical personnel of their obligation not to use Prohibited Substances and Methods and to take responsibility to make sure that any medical treatment received does not violate anti-doping rules.
  • To disclose to their National Anti-Doping Organization and International Federation any decision by a non-signatory finding that the athlete committed an anti-doping rule violation within the previous ten (10) years.
  • To cooperate with Anti-Doping Organizations investigating anti-doping rule violations.
  • To disclose the identity of their Athlete Support Personnel upon request by any Anti-Doping Organization with authority over the Athlete.
