Craven Week stunned by doping scandal

The CEO of the Institute for Drug-Free Sport, Khalid Galant, has confirmed that drug tests of four schoolboys have returned positive in Craven Week.

The four schoolboys cannot be named as they are still minors.

From Ecr.co.za:

CEO of the Institute for Drug-Free Sport, Khalid Galant, confirmed on Wednesday that the drug tests of four schoolboys, who can't be named because they are still minors, have returned positive.

This was after tests were carried out on 47% of those that took part in the tournament in Kimberley, at the end of June.

Galant went on to say that out of the four positives, two results also showed high levels of testosterone, and these have been sent for further analysis in Germany, to determine whether they were due to external sources or were naturally produced by the body.

The schoolboys who tested positive for anabolic steroids could face two-year bans from sport.
