Participants registered for Rip Curl Nationals and nominated for Team Trials must be aware that doping control may be conducted by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) in accordance with the Canadian Anti-Doping Program.

To avoid a positive test and the consequences of an anti-doping rule violation, athletes are encouraged to take the following steps:

• Check your medications: Use the Global DRO (http://www.globaldro.com/) to determine if any prescription or over-the-counter medications or treatments you are using are banned by the WADA Prohibited List.
• Review your medical exemption requirements:  If you require the use of a banned medication for a legitimate medical reason visit (http://cces.ca/medical-exemptions) to obtain information and instructions about how to apply for a medical exemption.
• Learn about the doping risks associated with supplements: Do not use supplements, or take significant precautions prior to doing so. Supplement products cannot be verified by the CCES or in the Global DRO. A lack of industry and government regulation makes it impossible to confirm their ingredients. Find out more at http://cces.ca/supplements.
• Review the sample collection procedures: This short video will take you step-by-step through doping control (http://cces.ca/sample-collection-procedures).
• Contact the CCES with any questions:
