CCES and CIS statement regarding football doping violations in Canadian Interuniversity Sport
May 8, 2015 – The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) and Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) are greatly concerned with the issue of doping in university football and the health and safety risks it poses to these athletes. Doping in this sport was highlighted in 2010 when nine football athletes from one university committed anti-doping rule violations. One violation, determined at that time, was the first time human growth hormone had been detected in North America.
