OCAA, CCAA, CCES Drug Free Sports
The CCAA will be fully
implementing the policies and procedures set by the CCES in accordance to WADA
regulations in order to provide a fair and doping-free sport environment. These
policies and procedures are in regards to the intake and use of illegal and/or
performance enhancing substances.
Athletes will be subjected to both random and announced drug testing
anytime during the college sport season (including pre-season camps, practices
and exhibition games).
All athletes are reminded to
inform their personal physicians that they are competing in college athletics
and certain medications (prescription or over the counter) may be considered
banned or prohibited by the CCES and WADA.
Physicians and athletes are, therefore, encouraged to refer to the 2004
CCES Substance Classification Booklet (available from the GBC Athletic
Department) before using any medication to relieve illness and/or symptoms.
Please remember that the
ultimate responsibility for any substance that is taken by the athlete lays
with the athlete him or herself.
