April 26, 2022
In May 2023 the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) reported a new anti-doping rule violation against the football player Donovan Burgmaier after his sample again tested positive for the prohibited substance Dehydrochlormethyltestosterone.
The Athlete is already serving two consecutive three year periods of ineligibility for his previous violations for presence and admitted use until 26 January 2028.
Following notification the Athlete gave a prompt admission, waived his right for a hearing and accepted the sanction proposed by CCES. Because he signed and submitted the Early Admission and Acceptance Form he received a 1 year reduction from CCES for his second anti-doping rule violation.
Therefore CCES decides on 30 May 2022 to impose a 7 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date the Athlete's 6 year period of ineligibility shall end, i.e. on 26 January 2028 until 26 January 2035.
