The Racquetball Association of Ireland`s policy is that doping is contrary to the spirit of sport and every member has a duty to ensure that the sport is free of doping. The Association fully subscribes to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), International Racquetball Federation and Sport Ireland procedures.  According to these, under the strict liability rule, athletes are responsible for any substance that may be found in their bodies.
It does not matter how the substance got there. If an athlete tests positive the result is a disqualification and possible sanction or suspension.
