Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRV)

Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) are breaches of rules designed to ensure fair play in sports, primarily involving the use of prohibited substances or methods that can enhance performance unfairly. This includes using banned drugs, tampering with samples, refusing tests, or possessing illegal substances. ADRVs aim to protect athletes' health and maintain integrity in competition. When a violation occurs, it can lead to sanctions like disqualification, suspension, or disqualification of results, ensuring a level playing field for all competitors.
