Australian Shayna Jack’s positive drugs test

Swimming Australia tonight confirmed that swimmer Shayna Jack has been notified by ASADA of an adverse test result following a routine out-of-competition drug test conducted by ASADA testers on June 26, 2019.



When Swimming Australia was made mindful of the unfriendly test outcome it promptly made a move - as per the national arrangement - to temporarily suspend Shayna from the Australian Swim Team while a procedure was in progress and went with her back to Australia from a preparation camp being held in Japan







 The Swimming Australia policy also means that any Australian athlete under provisional suspension while ASADA investigations are underway cannot take part in any competition, meaning Shayna was unable to travel to Gwangju to compete at the 2019 World Championships.


Under the particular enactment administering Australia's medication trying system, Swimming Australia is told of any unfriendly test result as is WADA and FINA. Under the procedure, all subtleties are required to stay private until ASADA has finished its examinations, the competitor is managed fair treatment and a result decided.

Swimming Australia CEO Leigh Russell said the association would keep on giving suitable help to Shayna, who is qualified for a reasonable procedure, yet Swimming Australia stayed clear on its way to deal with any exhibition upgrading drugs.


 “Swimming Australia is and always has been committed to a clean sport. We have consistently supported a zero tolerance approach to doping and have been strong supporters of a rigorous and consistent approach to drug testing both here and overseas,” Ms Russell said.
