INTRODUCTION
Preface
At the ISAF Mid Year Meeting held on 25 May 2003 in Oslo, Norway, the International Sailing
Federation (ISAF) accepted the World Anti-Doping Code (the "Code"). These Anti-Doping
Rules are adopted and implemented in conformance with ISAF's responsibilities under the
"Code", and are in furtherance of ISAF's continuing efforts to eradicate doping in the sport of
sailing.
Anti-Doping Rules, like competition rules, are sport rules governing the conditions under which
sport is played. Athletes 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 forth
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.
Fundamental Rationale for the "Code" and ISAF's Anti-Doping Rules
Anti-doping programmes seek to preserve what is intrinsically valuable about sport. This
intrinsic value is often referred to as "the spirit of sport"; it is the essence of Olympism; it is how
we play true. The spirit of sport is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind, and is
characterized by the following values:
- Ethics, fair play and honesty
- Health
- Excellence in performance
- Character and education
- Fun and joy
- Teamwork
- Dedication and commitment
