10.6.2 Application of No Significant Fault or Negligence beyond the Application of Article 10.6.1 If an Athlete or other Person establishes in an individual case where Article 10.6.1 is not applicable that he or she bears No Significant Fault or Negligence , then, subject to further reduction or elimination as provided in Article 10. |
7, the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibili ty may be reduced based on the Athlete or other Perso n’s degree of Fault , but the reduced period of Ineligibility may not be less than one -half of the period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable. |
If the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility is a li fetime, the reduced period under this Article may be no less than eight (8) years.49 10.7 Elimination, Reduction, or Suspension of Period of Ineligibility or other Consequences for Reasons other than Fault 10.7.1 Substantial Assistance in Discovering or Establishing Code Violations50 10.7.1.1 World Lacrosse may, prior to an appellate decision under Article 13 or the expiration of the time to appeal, suspend a part of the Consequences (other than Disqualification and mandatory Public Disclosure ) imposed in an individual case where the Athlete or other Person has provided Substantial Assistance to an Anti-Doping Organization , criminal authority or professional disciplinary body which results in: (i) the Anti-Doping Organization discovering or bringing forward an anti -doping rule violation by another Person ; or (ii) which results in a criminal or disciplinary body discovering or bringing 48 [Comment to Article 10.6.1.2: In order to receive the benefit of this Article, the Athlete or other Person must establish not only that the detected Prohibited Substance came from a Contaminated Product, but must also separately establish No Significant Fault o r Negligence. |
It should be further noted that Athletes are on notice that they take nutritional supplements at their own risk. |
The sanction reduction based on No Significant Fault or Negligence has rarely been applied in Contaminated Product cases unless the Athlete has exercised a high level of caution before taking the Contaminated Product. |
In assessing whether the Athlete ca n establish the source of the Prohibited Substance, it would, for example, be significant for purposes of establishing whether the Athlete actually Used the Contaminated Product, whether the Athlete had declared the product which was subsequently determined to b e contaminated on the Doping Control form. |
This Article should not be extended beyond products that have gone through some process of manufacturing. |
Where an Adverse Analytical Finding results from environment contamination of a “non-product” such as tap water or lake water in circumstances where no reasonable person would expect any risk of an anti -doping rule violation, typically there would be No Fault or Negligence under Article 10.5.] |
49 [Comment to Article 10.6.2: Article 1 0.6.2 may be applied to any anti -doping rule violation except those Articles where intent is an element of the anti -doping rule violation (e.g., Article 2.5, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 or 2.11) or an element of a particular sanction (e.g., Article 10.2.1) or a range of Ineligibility is already provided in an Article based on the Athlete or other Person’s degree of Fault. ] |
50 [Comment to Article 10.7.1: The cooperation of Athletes, Athlete Support Personnel and other Persons who acknowledge their mistakes and are willing to bring other anti -doping rule violations to light is important to clean sport.] |

After an appellate decision under Article 13 or the expiration of time to appeal, World Lacrosse may only suspend a part of the othe rwise applicable Consequences with the approval of WADA . |
The extent to which the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility may be suspended shall be based on the seriousness of the anti -doping rule violation committed by the Athlete or other Person and the significance of the Substantial Assistance provided by the Athlete or other Person to the effort to eliminate doping in sport, non -compliance with the Code and/or sport integrity violations. |
No more than three -quarters of the otherwise applicable per iod of Ineligibility may be suspended. |
If the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility is a lifetime, the non -suspended period under this Article must be no less than eight (8) years. |
For purposes of this paragraph, the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility shall not include any period of Ineligibility that could be added under Article 10.9.3.2 of the se Anti -Doping Rules . |
If so requested by an Athlete or other Person who seeks to provide Substantial Assistance , World Lacrosse shall allow the Athlete or other Person to provide the information to it subject to a Without Prejudice Agreement . |
If the Athlete or other Person fails to continue to cooperate and to provide the complete and credible Substantial Assistance upon which a suspension of Consequences was based, World Lacrosse shall reinstate the original Consequences . |
If World Lacrosse decides to reinstate suspended Consequences or decides not to reinstate suspended Consequences , that decision may be appealed by any Person entitled to appeal under Article 13. |
10.7.1.2 To further encourage Athlete s and other Person s to provide Substantial Assistance to Anti-Doping Organization s, at the request of World Lacrosse or at the request of the Athlete or other Person who has, or has been asserted to have , committed an anti -doping rule violation, or other violation of the Code , WADA may agree at any stage of the Results Management process, including after an appellate decision under Article 13, to what it considers to be an app ropriate suspension of the otherwise -applicable period of Ineligibility and other Consequences . |
In exceptional circumstances, WADA may agree to suspensions of the period of Ineligibility and other Consequences for Substantial Assistance greater than those otherwise provided in this WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 38 of 69 Article, or even no period of Ineligibility , no mandatory Public Disclosure and/or no return of prize money or payment of fines or costs. |
WADA ’s approval shall be subject to reinstatement of Consequences , as o therwise provided in this Article. |
Notwithstanding Article 13, WADA ’s decisions in the context of this Article 10.7.1.2 may not be appealed. |
10.7.1.3 If World Lacrosse suspends any part of an otherwise applicable sanction because of Substantial Assistanc e, then notice providing justification for the decision shall be provided to the other Anti-Doping Organizations with a right to appeal under Article 13.2.3 as provided in Article 14.2. |
In unique circumstances where WADA determines that it would be in the best interest of anti -doping, WADA may authorize World Lacrosse to enter into appropriate confidentiality agreements limiting or delaying the disclosure of the Substantial Assistance agreement or the nature of Substantial Assistance being provided. |
10.7.2 Admission of an Anti -Doping Rule Violation in the Absence of Other Evidence Where an Athlete or other Person voluntarily admits the commission of an anti -doping rule violation before having received notice of a Sample collection which could establish an anti-doping rule violation (or, in the case of an anti -doping rule violation other than Article 2.1, before receiving first notice of the admitted violation pursuant to Article 7) and that admission is the only reliable evidence of the violation at the time of admission, then the period of Ineligibility may be reduced, but not below one -half of the period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable.51 10.7.3 Application of Multiple Grounds for Reduction of a Sanction Where a n Athlete or other Person establishes entitlement to reduction in sanction under more than one provision of Article 10.5, 10.6 or 10.7, before applying any reduction or suspension under Article 10.7, the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility shall b e determined in accordance with Articles 10.2, 10.3, 10.5, and 10.6. |
If the Athlete or other Person establishes entitlement to a reduction or suspension of the period of Ineligibility under Article 10.7, then the period of Ineligibility may be reduced or s uspended, but not below one -fourth of the otherwise applicable period of Ineligibility . |
10.8 Results Management Agreements 10.8.1 One (1) Year Reduction for Certain Anti -Doping Rule Violations Based on Early Admission and Acceptance of Sanction Where an Athlete or other Person , after being notified by World Lacrosse of a potential anti -doping rule violation that carries an asserted period of Ineligibility of four (4) or more years (including any period of Ineligibility asserted under Article 10.4), admits the violation and accepts the asserted period of Ineligibility no later than twenty ( 20) days after receiving notice of an anti -doping ru le violation charge, the Athlete or other Person may receive a one (1) year reduction in the period of Ineligibility asserted by World Lacrosse . |
Where the 51 [Comment to Article 10.7.2: This Article is intended to apply when an Athlete or other Person comes forward and admits to an anti-doping rule violation in circumst ances where no Anti -Doping Organization is aware that an anti -doping rule violation might have been committed. |
It is not intended to apply to circumstances where the admission occurs after the Athlete or other Perso n believes he or she is about to be caugh t. The amount by which Ineligibility is reduced should be based on the likelihood that the Athlete or other Person would have been caught had he or she not come forward voluntarily.] |
WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 39 of 69 Athlete or other Person receives the one (1) year reduction in the asserted period of Ineligibility under this Article 10.8.1, no further reduction in the asserted period of Ineligibility shall be allowed under any other Article.52 10.8.2 Case Resolution Agreement Where the Athlete or other Person admits an anti -doping rule violation after being confronted with the anti -doping rule violation by World Lacrosse and agrees to Consequences acceptable to World Lacrosse and WADA , at their sole discretion, then: (a) the Athlete or other Person may receive a reduction in the period of Ineligibility based on an assessment by World Lacrosse and WADA of the application of Articles 10.1 through 10.7 to the asserted anti -doping rule vio lation, the seriousness of the violation, the Athlete or other Person ’s degree of Fault and how promptly the Athlete or other Person admitted the violation; and (b) the period of Ineligibility may start as early as the date of Sample collection or the date on which another anti -doping rule violation last occurred. |
In each case, however, where this Article is applied, the Athlete or other Person shall serve at least one-half of the agreed -upon period of Ineligibility going forward from the earlier of the dat e the Athlete or other Person accepted the imposition of a sanction or a Provisional Suspension which was subsequently respected by the Athlete or other Person . |
The decision by WADA and World Lacrosse to enter or not enter into a case resolution agreement, and the amount of the reduction to, and the starting date of, the period of Ineligibility are not matters for determination or review by a hearing body and are not subject to appeal under Article 13. |
If so requested by an Athlete or other Person who see ks to enter into a case resolution agreement under this Article, World Lacrosse shall allow the Athlete or other Person to discuss an admission of the anti -doping rule violation with it subject to a Without Prejudice Agreement .53 10.9 Multiple Violations 10.9.1 Second or Third Anti -Doping Rule Violation 10.9.1.1 For an Athlete or other Person’s second anti -doping rule violation, the period of Ineligibility shall be the greater of: (a) A six (6) month period of Ineligibility ; or (b) A period of Ineligibility in the range between: (i) the sum of the period of Ineligibility imposed for the first anti -doping rule violation plus the period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable to the second anti -doping rule violation treated as if it were a first violation , and (ii) twice the period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable to the second anti -doping rule violation treated as if it were a first 52 [Comment to Article 10.8.1: For example, if World Lacrosse alleges tha t an Athlete has violated Article 2.1 for Use of an anabolic steroid and asserts the applicable period of Ineligibility is four (4) years, then the Athlete may unilaterally reduce the pe riod of Ineligibility to three (3) years by admitting the violation an d accepting the three (3) year period of Ineligibility within the time specified in this Article, with no further reduction allowed. |
This resolves the case without any need for a hearing.] |
53 [Comment to Article 10.8: Any mitigating or aggravating factors set forth in this Article 10 shall be considered in arriving at the Consequences set forth in the case resolution agreement, and shall not be applicable beyond the terms of that agreement.] |
WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 40 of 69 violation . |
The period of Ineligibility within this range shall be determined based on the entirety of the circumstances and the Athlete or other Person ’s degree o f Fault with respect to the second violation. |
10.9.1.2 A third anti -doping rule violation will always result in a lifetime period of Ineligibility , except if the third violation fulfills the condition for elimination or reduction of the period of Ineligibility under Article 10.5 or 10.6 or involves a violation of Article 2.4. |
In these particular cases, the period of Ineligibility shall be from eight (8) years to lifetime Ineligibility . |
10.9.1. |
3 The period of Ineligibility established in Articles 10.9.1.1 and 10.9.1.2 may then be further reduced by the application of Article 10.7. |
10.9.2 An anti -doping rule violation for which an Athlete or other Person has established No Fault or Negligence shall not be considered a violation for purposes of this Article 10.9. |
In addition, an anti -doping rule violation sanctioned under Article 10.2.4.1 sh all not be considered a violation for purposes of Article 10.9 . |
10.9.3 Additional Rules for Certain Potential Multiple Violations 10.9.3.1 For purposes of imposing sanctions under Article 10.9, except as provided in Articles 10.9.3.2 and 10.9.3.3, an a nti-doping rule violation will only be considered a second violation if World Lacrosse can establish that the Athlete or other Person committed the additional anti-doping rule violation after the Athlete or other Person received notice pursuant to Article 7, or after World Lacrosse made reasonable efforts to give notice of the first anti -doping rule violation. |
If World Lacrosse cannot establish this, the violations shall be considered together as one single first violati on, and the sanction imposed shall be based on the violation that carries the more severe sanction, including the application of Aggravating Circumstances . |
Results in all Competitions dating back to the earlier anti -doping rule violation will be Disqualifi ed as provided in Article 10.10.54 10.9.3.2 If World Lacrosse establishes that an Athlete or other Person committed an additional anti -doping rule violation prior to notification, and that the additional violation occurred twelve ( 12) months or more before or after the first -noticed violation, then the period of Ineligibility for the additional violation shal l be calculated as if the additional violation were a stand -alone first violation and this period of Ineligibility is served consecutively, rather than concurrently, with the period of Ineligibility imposed for the earlier -noticed violation. |
Where this Art icle 10.9.3.2 applies, the violations taken together shall constitute a single violation for purposes of Article 10.9.1. |
54 [Comment to Article 10.9.3.1: The same rule applies where, after the imposition of a sanction, World Lacrosse discovers facts involving an anti -doping rule violation that occurred prior to notification for a first anti -doping rule violation – e.g., World L acrosse shall impose a sanction based on the sanction that could have been imposed if the two (2) violations had been adjudicated at the same time, including the application of Aggravating Circumstances.] |
WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 41 of 69 10.9.3.3 If World Lacrosse establishes that an Athlete or other Person committed a violation of Article 2.5 in connection with the Doping Control process for an underlying asserted anti -doping rule violation, the violation of Article 2.5 shall be treated as a stand -alone first violation and the period of Ineligibility for such violation shall be served consecutively, rather than concur rently, with the period of Ineligibility , if any, imposed for the underlying anti -doping rule violation. |
Where this Article 10.9.3.3 is applied, the violations taken together shall constitute a single violation for purposes of Article 10.9.1. |
10.9.3.4 If World Lacrosse establishes that a n Athlete or other Person has committed a second or third anti -doping rule violation during a period of Ineligibility , the periods of Ineligibility for the multiple violations shall run consecutively, rather than concurrently. |
10.9.4 Multiple Anti -Doping Rule Violations during Te n (10) Year Period For purposes of Article 10.9, each anti -doping rule violation must take place within the same ten (10) year period in order to be considered multiple violations. |
10.10 Disqualification of Results in Competitions Subsequent to Sample Collection or Commission of an Anti -Doping Rule Violation In addition to the automatic Disqualification of the results in the Competition which produced the positive Sample under Article 9, all other competitive results of the Athlete obtained from the date a positive Sample was collected (whether In-Competition or Out-of-Competition ), or ot her anti -doping rule violation occurred, through the commencement of any Provisional Suspension or Ineligibility period, shall, unless fairness requires otherwise, be Disqualified with all of the resulting Consequences including forfeiture of any medals, p oints and prizes.55 10.11 Forfeited Prize Money If World Lacrosse recovers prize money forfeited as a result of an anti -doping rule violation, it shall take reasonable measures to allocate and distribute this prize money to the Athletes who would have been entitled to it had the forfeiting Athlete not competed.56 10.12 Financial Consequences 10.12.1 Where an Athlete or other Person commits an anti -doping rule violation, World Lacrosse may, in its discretion and subject to the principle of proportionality, elect to (a) recover from the Athlete or other Person costs associated with the anti -doping rule violation, regardless of the period of Ineligibility imposed and/or (b) fine the Athle te or other Person in an amount up to $10,000 U.S. |
Dollars only in cases where the maximum period of Ineligibility otherwise applicable has already been imposed. |
55 [Comment to Article 10.10: Nothing in these Anti -Doping Rules precludes clean Athletes or other Persons who have been damaged by the actions of a Person who has committed an anti -doping rule violation from pursuing any right which they would otherwise have to seek damages from such Person.] |
56 [Comment to Article 10.11: This Article is not intended to impose an affirmative duty on World Lacrosse to take any action to collect forfeited prize money. |
If World Lacrosse elects not to take any action to collect forfeited prize money, it may assign i ts right to recover such money to the Athlete(s) who should have otherwise received the money. |
“Reasonable measures to allocate and distribute this prize money” could include using collected forfeited prize money as agreed upon by World Lacrosse and its At hletes.] |
WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 42 of 69 10.12.2 The imposition of a financial sanction or the World Lacrosse 's recovery of costs shall not be considered a basis for reducing the Ineligibility or other sanction which would otherwise be applicable under these Anti -Doping Rules. |
10.13 Commencement of Ineligibility Period Where an Athlete is already serving a period of Ineligibility for an anti -doping rule violation, any new period of Ineligibility shall commence on the first day after the current period of Ineligibility has been served. |
Otherwise, except as provided below, the period of Ineligibility shall start on the date of the final hearing decision providing for Ineligibility or, if the hearing is waived or there is no hearing, on the date Ineligibility is accepted or otherwise imposed. |
10.13.1 Delays Not Attributable to the Athlete or other Person Where there have been substantial delays in the hearing process or other aspects of Doping Control , and the Athlete or other Person can establish that such delays are not attributable to the Athlete or other Person , World Lacrosse or the CAS Anti -Doping Division , may start the period of Ineligibility at an earlier date commencing as early as the date of Sample collection or the date on which another anti -doping rule violation last occurred. |
All competitive results achieved during the period of Ineligibility , including retroactive Ineligibility , shall be Disqualified .57 10.13.2 Credit for Provisional Suspension or Period of Ineligibility Served 10.13.2.1 If a Provisional Suspension is respected by the Athlete or other Person , then the Athlete or other Person shall receive a credit for such period of Provisional Suspension against any period of Ineligibility which may ultimately be imposed. |
If the Athlete or other Person does not respect a Provisional Suspension , then the Athlete or other Person shall receive no credit for any period of Provisional Suspension served. |
If a period of Ineligibility is served pursuant to a decision that is subsequently appealed, then the Athlete or other Person shall receive a credit for such period of Ineligibility served against any period of Ineligibility which may ultimately be imposed on appeal. |
10.13.2.2 If an Athlete or other Person voluntarily accepts a Provisional Suspension in writing from World Lacrosse and thereafter respects the Provisional Suspension , the Athlete or other Person shall receive a credit for such period of voluntary Provisional Suspension against any period of Ineligibility which may u ltimately be imposed. |
A copy of the Athlete or other Person’s voluntary acceptance of a Provisional Suspension shall be provided promptly to each party entitled to receive notice of an asserted anti -doping rule violation under Article 14.1.58 57 [Comment to Article 10.13.1: In cases of anti -doping rule violations other than under Article 2.1, the time required for an Anti -Doping Organization to discover and develop facts sufficient to establish an anti -doping rule violation may be leng thy, particularly where the Athlete or other Person has taken affirmative action to avoid detection. |
In these circumstances, the flexibility pr ovided in this Article to start the sanction at an earlier date should not be used.] |
58 [Comment to Article 10.1 3.2.2: An Athlete’s voluntary acceptance of a Provisional Suspension is not an admission by the Athlete and shall not be used in any way to draw an adverse inference against the Athlete.] |
WADA 2021 IF Model Rules ( December 2019) Page 43 of 69 10.13.2.3 No credit against a period of Ineligibility shall be given for any time period before the effective date of the Provisional Suspension or voluntary Provisional Suspension regardless of whether the Athlete elected not to compete or was suspended by a team. |
10.13.2.4 In Team Sports , where a period of Ineligibility is imposed upon a team, unless fairness requires otherwise, the period of Ineligibility shall start on the date of the final hearing decision providing for Ineligibility or, if the hearing is waived, on the date Ineligibility is accepted or otherwise imposed. |
Any period of team Provisional Suspension (whether imposed or voluntarily accepted) shall be credited against the total period of Ineligibility to be served. ] |
