Appealed case:
KNKV 2011 KNKV Decision Disciplinary Committee 2011001 T
May 10, 2011
The Person appealed the decision of the Royal Dutch Korfball Association (Koninklijk Nederlands Korfbalverbond, KNKV) rendered on 10 May 2011 for his refusal to cooperate to Doping Control.
The Person asserted that he didn’t refuse to the DCO, he was misinformed about the Doping Control. Prior he had received insufficient and confusing information from the organizations about the whereabouts and the one-hour-timeslot.
The Appeal Committee considered the issued information and education in question and concludes that the Person indeed didn't refuse to cooperate to Doping Control as a result of miscarriage of justice.
Without the Person's fault the Committee deems that the imposed sanction was disproportional. Therefore KNKV Appeal Committee annuls the KNKV decision of 10 May 2011 and decides to impose only a warning on the Person.
