Ottawa – June 3, 2024 – Sport integrity information for the Paris 2024 Games is now available for Team Canada athletes and support personnel, including anti-doping resources and competition manipulation prevention materials. The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) has consolidated information about therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs), whereabouts information, Games-time doping control, supplements, and values-based sport for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Online learning about anti-doping and competition manipulation is also available. For more information, go to www.cces.ca/paris2024.
The CCES reminds athletes to carefully check the status of any medication to ensure it won’t result in a positive test. To determine if medications are prohibited and a medical exemption is required, use Global DRO.
New Education Requirement
Paris 2024 is the first time Olympic athletes and support personnel are required to complete both anti-doping and competition manipulation education before the Games. In addition to a True Sport Clean course, they’ll complete Understanding Competition Manipulation – a 15-minute e-learning course that includes the latest updates from the Olympic Movement Code on the Prevention of the Manipulation of Competition. Athletes and athlete support personnel participating at the Paralympic Games are encouraged to complete the Understanding Competition Manipulation course as well.
Congratulations and good luck to all Team Canada athletes competing in Paris! We encourage you to live your values and to embrace the True Sport Principles that represent the good sport Canadians believe in.
