    Tribunal Arbitral du Sport Court of Arbitration for Sport Arbitration CAS ad hoc Division (OG Rio) 16/025 World Anti Doping Agency (WADA) v. Narsingh Yadav & National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA), award of 21 August 2016 (operative part of 18 August 2016) Panel: Mr Mark Hovell (United Kingdom), President; Mr Jinwon Park (South Korea); Mrs Andrea Carska-Sheppard (Czech Republic) Wrestling Doping (methandienone) Time when the dispute arises Dispute “in connection with” the Olympic Games Type and weighing of evidence 1. When WADA is challenging with the ad hoc Division the decision of a national anti- doping organisation’s anti-doping body to exonerate an athlete from the charges of violating the anti-doping rules of the national anti-doping organisation, it is the day of that decision that triggers the time when the dispute arises. It is not the date of the out- of-competition testing that led to the decision or of the decision to provisionally suspend the athlete. 2. The decision to exonerate an athlete from the charges of violating the anti-doping rules of the national anti-doping organisation and to allow him or her to participate in the Olympic Games is clearly “in connection with” the Olympic Games. 3. A CAS panel can accept both circumstantial evidence and witness evidence and, indeed, other evidence, but it is for the panel to determine what weight to attach to all the evidence before it and the panel can only be guided by the evidence proffered by each party in support of its case. 1. PARTIES 1.1 The Applicant is the World Anti-Doping Agency (“WADA”), based in Montreal, Canada, the organisation responsible for anti-doping in the world.

Further it included running competitions, but the introduction of the Ancient Olympic pentathlon marked a step towards track and field as it is recognised today.
