CMTA Drug Testing
Drug Testing in Counties Manukau Touch
Counties Manukau Touch administers a drug-testing program for teams
participating in National events or any other event that the
organisation chooses to enter.
Counties Manukau Touch accepts the
World Anti-Doping Code. These Anti-Doping Rules are adopted and
implemented by Counties Manukau Touch as part of the criteria to
participate in all areas of the sport of Touch and seek to further
efforts to eradicate doping within the Counties Manukau Region.
Anti-Doping
Rules, like Competition rules, are sport rules governing the conditions
under which sport is played. Touch players accept these rules as a
condition of participation. Anti-Doping Rules are not intended to be
subject to or limited by the requirements and legal standards
applicable to criminal proceedings or employment matters.
The
policies and minimum standards set out in the Code and implemented in
these Anti-Doping Rules represent the consensus of a broad spectrum of
stakeholders with an interest in fair sport and should be respected by
all courts and adjudicating bodies. Touch NZ also administer a drug
testing process at the National and Regional events.;
