- The number of athletes to be subjected to anti-doping control is determined by the jury, which is obliged to athletes involved in oral or written form.
- Alerting the athletes, they must present themselves in the area of biological sampling immediately after them performance in the competition. If the athlete does not show or refuses to be tested, the outcome of his or her check is identified as POSITIVE.
