Sanctions
Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) are published in accordance with the World Anti-Doping Code. All international Athlete Support Personnel (ASP) currently serving a ban can be found in the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited Association List.
Redacted sanctions listed on the UKAD website refer to ADRVs in which the Athlete/ASP/other person has served the sanction imposed (i.e. a four-year ban) and is now eligible to participate in sport.
