olympicdivisionIn the Fall of 2008, USADA developed the Olympic Division in alignment with Game Plan 2012, with thegoal of creating customer-focused teams aligned by sport and accountable for delivering exceptional customerservice. The Olympic Division staff is responsible for implementing the testing program and fulfilling allelements of client contracts, following the WADA Code and International Standards, as well as recognizedglobal Best Practices, the USOC Anti-Doping Policies, and the USADA Protocol for Olympic and ParalympicMovement Testing. The Olympic Division is broken up into two sections – Sportfolio Teams and OlympicEducation - which together are dedicated to ensuring seamless management of USADA’s Registered Testing Pool(RTP), test distribution plan, and athlete education programs.Sportfolio TeamsThe Sportfolio teams are responsible for the operation of USADA’s testing program, includingboth In-Competition and Out-of-Competition testing. Teams focus on specific groups of sports, withthe responsibility of ensuring that all elements of the test distribution plan are executed.Those on the Sportfolio Teams also act as liaison between USADA and the National Governing Bodies(NGB) to ensure that the USADA RTP is updated, In-Competition tests are conducted at specified events,and to direct invaluable sharing and communication of pertinent information between organizations.Throughout the year, Sportfolio Staff -- as the main communicators to the athletes in the USADARTP -- field critical questions on USADA policies and processes such as the USADA Online Accountand Whereabouts Filings, as well as reaching out through direct contact regarding key deadlines andannouncements.Vancouver Olympic Games TestingIn the Fall of 2009, the Sportfolio Teams put in place a comprehensive program to ensure that all U.S.athletes participating in the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics were tested within 150 days of the startof the games. In order to accomplish this work, the Sportfolio Teams worked closely with USADA’sresults management team, the laboratories, the NGBs, and the USOC to have all samples collected andresults reported in a timely fashion. This was highly successful, even including athletes who were addedto the team within close proximity to the Opening of the Games.Olympic Education – Athletes and Support TeamsThe Olympic Education team, through each and every touchpoint with USADA, is committed toenhancing the athlete experience, ensuring maximum comprehension and compliance for those whoare subject to the program. The initial and primary focus includes the “For Athletes” and “Resources”sections of the USADA website, as well as on-going education initiatives such as online tutorials andupdated publications that guide athletes through the processes of Whereabouts Filing, SampleCollection, Results Management, and the Therapeutic Use Exemption process.The Olympic Education team coordinates and conducts the majority of education sessions toathletes in the USADA Registered Testing Pool (RTP) through formal presentations to athlete groupsand in informal settings at the U.S. Olympic Training Centers. In addition to prevention and healthmessages, USADA presentations comprehensively cover a variety of anti-doping program topics, suchas the Prohibited List, drug reference resources, RTP information, Whereabouts, sample collectionprocesses, Results Management, and Therapeutic Use Exemptions.14 u.s. anti-doping agency

Olympic Education - Presentations, Audiences Reached,Publications Distributed, and Materials CreatedIn 2009, the Olympic Education team reached more than 5,300 athletes and athlete support personnelthrough face-to-face presentations, webinars, material distribution, outreach activities, and events. Effortswere heavily prioritized on education for those athletes in the USADA RTP who had not attended presentations in prior years. The Olympic Education team also collaborated with the Communications andOutreach team to conduct outreach efforts more broadly throughout the United States, sharing USADA’smission to inspire a commitment to the core principles of true sport.New athletes to the RTP were provided many valuable opportunities to connect directly with theEducation team, including webinars designed to explain the program requirements in practical terms. TheOlympic Education team also reached out to athletes and athlete support personnel at the Olympic TrainingCenters through a series of Dining Hall Chats, enabling distribution of USADA materials and reminders ofimportant deadlines and responsibilities, and facilitating communication of USADA’s clean sport initiatives.During 2009, the team also created publications and media materials which provided the athletes aclearer understanding of the anti-doping process. The Athlete Pocket Guide summarizes key anti-dopinginformation in a short and concise document. The information is targeted to RTP athletes, but isbeneficial for all athletes who are subject to testing. A comprehensive Sample Collection video wascreated to provide an overview of the sample collection process and the steps that occur both in-competition as well as out-of-competition. The video paints a real-life picture of the athletes’ responsibilitiesduring the sample collection process and what an athlete might experience, as well as depicting therequirement of being available for testing at any time and at any location.USADA continued to keep athletes and athlete support personnel aware of anti-doping news throughthe periodic Spirit of Sport newsletter, utilizi
