What To Expect During Testing - New Sample Collection Kits

Athletes competing and training in the UK and internationally are reminded that testing can still happen anytime, anywhere. This could be at UKAD's request, by an International Federation (IF), or the local National Anti-Doping Organisation (NADO) for international athletes.

Most will be familiar with the Berlinger kits used by UKAD. However, the sample collection kits may look a little different when the tests are done by other Anti-Doping Organisations (ADOs).

For further information on how to use the sample collection kits, UKAD encourages athletes to speak to the DCO at the time of the test.
