The five athletes who were involved in the positive testing for banned substances at the Jamaica Trial will not be allowed to run at the WC. This after technical director of the Jamaica Team in Berlin, Donald Quarrie, excluded them from the list of competitors submitted to the IAAF. It was evident from during the week that it would not have been possible for them to compete. Even though the JADCO disciplinary committee had cleared them, JADCO had filed an appeal against the decision. The IAAF had also indicated that they would not be able to review the case until after the WC. In any case, based on the testing done, the elements found were seen at stimulants by WADA, which would result in an automatic sanction by that body. It did not make any sense to build up these athletes hopes..It is very sad that JADCO has failed to show professionalism in terms of the hearing and the procedures that WADA has laid down....
