UKAD 2015 UKAD vs Sean Penkywicz
Facts
The UK Anti-Doping organization (UKAD) charges Sean Penkywicz, the player, for an anti-doping rule (ADR) violation. On December 5, 2014, the player provided a sample for an out-of-competition doping test. Analysis of the samples did not show an adverse analytical finding, however on January 27, 2015, the A sample was retested for Growth Hormone Releasing Factor, this analysis returned an adverse analytical finding for Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6 (GHRP-6). The athlete requested a B sample analysis which confirmed the earlier finding.
History
The player, via his representative, informs that he no longer wished to contest the charge of committing an ADR Violation. He confirmed that he accepted the imposition of the applicable Consequences of the Anti-Doping Rule Violation.
Decision
- The player is ruled Ineligible for a period of two (2) years in accordance. The period of Ineligibility is deemed to have started running from the date that he was charged and Provisionally Suspended. It will therefore run from 9 April 2015 to 8 April 2017 (inclusive).
- During the period of ineligibility the player may not participate in any capacity in a Competition, Event or other activity (other than authorized anti-doping education or rehabilitation programs) organised, convened, authorized or recognized by the Rugby Football League (RFL) or any body that is a member of or affiliated to or licensed by the RFL; any Signatory of the World Anti-Doping Code or any club or other body that is a member of or affiliated to or licensed by a Signatory or a Signatory's member organization; or any professional league or any international or national level Event organisation; and

This is a comment that only the lawyers will love. It springs from a conversation between lawyers. It involves lawyers deconstructing language written by lawyers and exposes ambiguity that only lawyers would enjoy arguing about. Ambiguity that will require lawyers to fix.
