The person in charge of the test verifies, by any means, the identity of the athlete being tested, if necessary with the assistance in particular of:
the anti-doping delegate provided for in article L. 232-14 or a person designated by the federation if no anti-doping delegate has been designated or if the athlete has failed to fulfil the obligation mentioned in article R. 232-60 ;
-the organiser of the competition or event;
-the escort provided for in article R. 232-56.
If the athlete being tested is a minor, any sample taking requiring an invasive technique may only be carried out on the basis, in addition to the athlete’s own authorisation, of written authorisation from the person(s) with parental authority given when the licence is taken out or renewed. If the athlete being tested is a protected adult and the taking of such a sample falls within the categories of acts for which the person concerned benefits from the assistance of the person responsible for his or her protection under the terms of article 459 of the Civil Code, the sample may only be taken in the light of written authorisation from this person given under the same conditions. The absence of authorisation constitutes evasion of the taking of a sample within the meaning of 1° of article L. 232-9-2.
