The former biathlete of the Austrian national team, the chief physician of the leading Austrian medical center Revital Aspach, Günter Beck, explained how the biological passport of an athlete works, when deviations from the norm can indicate the use of doping, and what imperfections the data collection system has.

What is an athlete's biological passport and how does this system for monitoring the "purity" of athletes work?

A biological passport is a profile of a person compiled in the form of medical blood parameters. The purpose of introducing the biological profile of an athlete is to collect natural blood parameters and monitor their fluctuations, on the basis of which conclusions can be drawn about possible manipulations. When collecting data for an athlete's passport, certain parameters of human blood are used: these are hemoglobin, hematocrit, reticulocytes, blood cells, and others.

What is called "abnormal indicators"?

When an athlete uses doping, he tries to optimize his blood counts so that the deviation from the norm also fits into the acceptable medical framework. If in the profile some indicators are too high or markedly lowered, they speak of "abnormal indicators". The presence of such indicates any deviations: we can talk about both manipulations and the ongoing disease.

The presence of uncertainty in the interpretation of blood parameters can indicate the imperfection of the system?

The problem is that many athletes get such a passport late. For example, a person takes doping - EPO or performs any other prohibited manipulations for a couple of years, and against this background registers his blood passport. In this case, its falsely changed indicators are taken as baseline and are considered normal. Therefore, it is necessary to open a biological passport very early, at a young age of an athlete.

I have not seen Ustyugov's analyzes and cannot say how much his indicators really deviate from the baseline. Another question is how all these analyzes were carried out and unified, and whether there are other data that allow us to talk about manipulations with the "purity" of the athlete. Remember the situation with the German speed skater Claudia Pechstein, when she was charged with doping only on the basis of deviations in her blood passport. That disqualification was appointed without detecting traces of prohibited drugs in the athlete’s blood, but due to “non-standard” blood counts. This is definitely not enough.

How do natural deviations differ from artificial ones?

If a standard technique is used for research, and there are large deviations from the norm that cannot be explained from a medical point of view, then in this case we can say that manipulations were carried out.

How to prevent false accusations of athletes when their natural data differs from the generally accepted ones?

Ideally, the entire process should be organized in one laboratory and carried out under the same conditions. Data collection and analyzes are currently coordinated in three different locations: the WADA laboratory, the national federation laboratories, and the IBU laboratory. It turns out that the three structures work in parallel and determine their own indicators. It is necessary to work together, using one laboratory, the same instruments and, accordingly, a single scale, a system for collecting and processing indicators.

So the biological passport has potential?

In principle, the method of collecting biological information in the athlete's passport is an excellent and important idea that has great potential. Thanks to this system, there is the possibility of a clearer and deeper control. At the same time, the importance of using a blood passport, in my opinion, is not only in monitoring the fair play”, but also in monitoring the health of the athlete. But at the same time, I believe that it is necessary to start collecting data as early as possible, not at the age of 20-25, when an athlete comes to the World Cup, but from a junior age.

In Russia, the "Athlete's Passport", which was formally valid from January 1, 2007, was canceled. The reasons given were the high cost of its implementation (according to official information, 16 billion rubles) and the recently adopted law on the protection of personal data. "Championship" gathered directly opposite opinions about this decision. The senator, two-time Olympic champion Vyacheslav Fetisov, who stressed that "Russian sport has missed a unique chance." In turn, Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said that at this stage, an athlete's passport is not needed.

Find talent in Kamchatka

Let's immediately figure out what it is - "Athlete's Passport". He has nothing to do with biological passport, . Actually, the "Athlete's Passport" is the same as a general passport, only in sports. There are: sport, categories, anthropometric data and physiological indicators, indicators of medical examinations, sports

A guy appears in Kamchatka, who showed excellent results at regional competitions. Immediately, his indicators are entered into his passport, and experts take him “on a pencil”.

results, information about disqualification, information about state awards. All this was to be combined into a single electronic system.

“Why is all this necessary? A simple example says Vyacheslav Fetisov, now holding the post of First Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Social Policy. - A boy appears in Kamchatka, who showed excellent results at regional competitions, for example, in high jumps. Immediately, his indicators are entered into his passport, into the general database, and literally immediately experts take him “on a pencil”. You can imagine the value of such a global database for a country of many millions, in which hundreds of children's sports schools are scattered, hundreds of regional competitions are held.

Formally, the "Athlete's Passport" was introduced on January 1, 2007. Then it was lobbied by the entire sports community: the State Duma Sports Committee, the Sports Commission of the Federation Council (ironically it was headed by Vitaly Mutko, whose department has now closed the project), Rossport Vyacheslav Fetisov. In the summer of 2006, Vladimir Putin signed a law on a sports passport, which provided for the issuance of a document for each athlete, starting with children's sports schools.

Less than a Hulk transfer

“The point was to get the most complete and objective map of all industries,” says Fetisov, who served as head of Rossport in 2002-2008. - To clearly understand how many athletes we have in the country, in what sports and regions. Strong regions and weak regions would be clearly visible - and what needs to be improved. We pledged an amount of 3 billion rubles for the implementation of the project. . I think we could afford it. Work has begun on the introduction of the passport. In Moscow, it was introduced as quickly as possible and the effect was immediately felt. But year after year went by, and there was no end in sight. The Upper House has mandated every year to speed up this work starting in 2010. But we didn't see any response."

We pledged an amount of 3 billion rubles for the implementation of the project. This is much less than the transfer of the Hulk or the salary of the same Capello.

About a year ago, by order of the Russian government, a draft law developed by the Ministry of Sports on the abolition of the Athlete's Passport was submitted to the State Duma. The rationale indicated the main reason: “According to the estimates of the Russian Ministry of Sports and the Russian Ministry of Finance, the production, issuance and maintenance of sports passports for 17 million people involved in physical culture and sports in 83 constituent entities of the Russian Federation would require more than 16 billion rubles.”

The bill went through all three readings in the State Duma and at the end of last week reached hearings in the Federation Council, which also quite predictably voted to curtail the program. According to Vyacheslav Fetisov, he sharply opposed, and the case was decided by just two votes.

3 billion turned into 61

However, the passport is not prohibited. Moreover, the authors argue that the bill will "encourage" sports federations to maintain their own system for recording data on athletes - taking into account the requirements of legislation in the field of personal data. There are already examples: the Russian Judo Federation has such a passport.

“Motivation seems frivolous to me,” says Vyacheslav Fetisov. - They said that it is necessary to protect athletes from agents who allegedly receive data from passports. They talked about a new law on the protection of personal data, although the necessary security measures regarding confidentiality were provided from the very beginning. The federations that are now entrusted with the right to maintain a passport are not all Russian sports, it is unlikely that public organizations will be able to cover the regions, children's sports schools. Plus, I was embarrassed by the figure that was announced at the meeting of the top

chamber before the vote. I did not find it in any official document. 61 billion rubles - exactly as much, as we were told, is needed for the implementation of the project. Although, according to our calculations, as I said, only three billion were needed.

Fetisov does not hide the fact that the Ministry of Sports is primarily responsible for curtailing the project. “It seems to me that the main sports department acted as a brake, which did not want transparency in assessing the state of the entire industry. Thus, we missed a unique chance to understand now what Russian sport is. If this idea arises in a few years, it will cost many times more, ”says the two-time Olympic champion.

The Ministry of Sports does not agree with Fetisov's assessments. Vitaly Mutko is sure that no one needs an Athlete's Passport at the moment. “Now we live normally without an Athlete's Passport,” the Minister of Sports noted. - In life there should be expediency, not personal ambitions. Each stage of the development of sports should have its own task. If I have three extra pennies, I will gladly give them to the nursery sports school so that parents are not charged at competitions. But at this stage in the development of domestic sports, we don’t need an Athlete’s Passport.”

On January 1, 2009, additions and changes come into force Federal Law of December 4, 2007 N 329-FZ \"On physical culture and sports in the Russian Federation \" (Edition of December 25, 2008). Federal Law \"On Amendments to the Federal Law\"On physical education and sports in the Russian Federation\" Russian President Vladimir Putin signed back in June 2006.

At the round table of the presidents of the member FCS in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, which will be held on March 11, 2009 in Moscow, among other issues, the introduction of sports passports for dancers will be discussed. This is because one of the amendments that came into force on January 1 this year is Article 27 on the sports passport. Its text is given below.

Article 27 Sports passport

1. A sports passport is a document of a single sample, certifying belonging to a physical culture and sports or other organization and sports qualification of an athlete.
2. The sports passport shall indicate:

  1. surname, name, patronymic of the athlete;
  2. Date of Birth;
  3. belonging to a physical culture and sports or other organization;
  4. selected sports and sports disciplines;
  5. information on the assignment of sports categories and sports titles;
  6. information on confirmation of the fulfillment of the norms and requirements necessary for the assignment of sports categories;
  7. a mark on the passage of medical examinations by the athlete;
  8. results achieved in sports competitions;
  9. information about sports disqualification;
  10. information about state awards and other forms of encouragement;
  11. surname, name, patronymic of the coach;
  12. other information related to the specifics of the selected sports.
3. An athlete's affiliation to a sports organization is determined on the basis of an employment contract concluded between the athlete and the sports organization.
4. In the event that an athlete is enrolled in an educational institution of secondary vocational education or higher professional education and the contract specified in paragraph 3 of this article has not been concluded with him, the athlete’s belonging to a sports organization is determined on the basis of an order for enrollment in an educational institution.
5. The procedure for maintaining, the procedure for issuing, the procedure for replacing sports passports, the procedure for the functioning of a unified system for recording sports passports are established by the Regulations on a sports passport. Regulations on a sports passport and a sample of a sports passport are approved in the manner prescribed by the Government of the Russian Federation.


The federal law establishes the obligatory presence of a sports passport when an athlete who is a citizen of the Russian Federation moves from one Russian physical culture and sports organization to another. An athlete for whom a sports passport is not issued (except for the case of its non-issuance due to reasons beyond the control of the athlete) is not allowed to participate in all-Russian sports competitions (that is, is participation without such a document allowed at inter-club and inter-regional tournaments?).

In the new Law No. 329-FZ, which entered into force on March 30, 2008 (the old one, no longer in force, is Law No. 80-FZ), there are some contradictions in the definition of an athlete.

Law No. 80-FZ indicated three requirements for an athlete (amateur athlete):

  • systematically engage in a chosen sport,
  • compete in sports
  • have a sports passport.
Law No. 329-FZ in Article 2, which defines the basic concepts, reduced the number of attributes of an athlete (without specifying whether they belong to amateurs or professionals), leaving only the first two requirements. It follows from the definition that most dancers are still athletes.

However, in Article 27 of Law No. 329-FZ, we read that a sports passport is a single sample document certifying belonging to a sports or other organization and sports qualification of an athlete. The sports passport indicates, in particular, belonging to a sports or other organization. At the same time, the athlete's belonging to a sports organization is determined on the basis of an employment contract concluded between the athlete and the sports organization. An exception is made only for athletes studying in technical schools and universities: their belonging to a physical culture and sports organization is determined on the basis of an order for enrollment in an educational institution.

Concluding an agreement is more beneficial for dancers, because it is a clear definition of their rights and obligations. On the other hand, if it's not just a contract, employment contract, for which a club or federation can pay an E-class dancer 6-7 years old?
Thus, an incomprehensible logical chain is built up: in order to belong to some physical culture and sports organization, for example, a local (city) sports dance federation, in this federation (which, by the way, is a public organization by law), one must work for hire, that is, federation an employment contract and, accordingly, receive wages from the federation. However, as stated in the Law, an athlete who receives a salary belongs to the category of professional athletes. It turns out an unexpected conclusion: there can be no sports other than professional in the country. Law No. 80-FZ also contained legal provisions governing the procedure for obtaining and using a sports passport, but, unlike the new law, it did not link membership in a sports organization with the conclusion of an employment contract. (materials of the lawyer A. Tolmasova from the site www.cafrussia.ru were used)

Law No. 329-FZ prescribes all-Russian physical culture and sports public associations (federations, unions, associations) in various sports to bring the constituent documents in line with the requirements of the Law within four years from the date of its entry into force. Otherwise, they will lose the status of the all-Russian sports federation.
TO local and regional sports federations, as well as other physical culture and sports organizations, Law No. 329-FZ does not impose such a requirement. However, each non-profit organization operating in the field of physical culture and (or) sports must study the text of the new law, compare its charter and other documents with it. But the local FCS are members of the Russian one, so they will obey its rules?

Assignment\"A \" class and lower - the right of local and regional federations. So, having received the \"S\" class, the dancers must sign an agreement with the Russian Federation and go to its department, receive a salary? This is already clearer, because, in fact, such couples are the reserve of the country and its representatives in the international arena. But then it turns out that a couple automatically moves into the category of professionals. And such a transition should be carried out only by the decision of the dancers and after they have passed the exams.

These questions that dancers have are actually addressed to the government and the president of the Russian Federation, legislative bodies, and not to the FTSR, which is obliged to obey the current legislation, and, therefore, introduce sports passports.

The state allocates funds for this. At the moment, there is a methodology for subventions provided in 2009-2011 from the federal budget to the budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation for the implementation of the delegated powers of the Russian Federation to issue and maintain sports passports.

For example, in 2009 the Pskov region will receive 26 million rubles from the federal budget for the introduction of sports passports. This was reported to the Pskovskaya Lenta Novostei in the press service of the regional administration with reference to the chairman of the committee on youth policy and sports of the Pskov region Alexander Konovalov (according to www.pskovgorod.ru). \"This will be a document that has legal force. In the coming years, all Russian athletes will be covered by universal passportization. Moreover, not only professional athletes, but also people who come to mass sports,\" said the chairman of the sports committee. As Alexander Konovalov noted, in the next two years, up to 30,000 passports of athletes from the Pskov region will have to be made.

According to the site www.komionline.ru, the document will be a numbered plastic card, similar to a driver's license, with full information about the athlete. \"A passport will be given to every resident of the republic who has at least some degree...\", - explained the head of the regional sports agency of the Republic of Komi Vasily Goncharenko. Thus, a unified database of Russian athletes will be formed, which, according to the new document, will be allowed to participate in competitions and to world sports library systems. In the future, it is planned that the sports passport will allow the holder to receive a number of additional services and benefits, including access to sports facilities, medical care and insurance. According to the head of the sports agency, Komi received federal subventions in the amount of 61 million rubles for the procedure for introducing passports," Goncharenko said at a press conference.

But can a plastic card replace a paper classification book? It is unlikely that for this it is necessary to buy new equipment for registration and counting commissions.

According to Pavel Krasheninnikov, head of the State Duma committee on civil, criminal and procedural legislation, the bill is aimed at eliminating conflicts between individual norms regulating the activities of professional athletes. What about amateur sports? About a huge number of fans laws\"forgotten \"?

\"The fact is that, on the one hand, the law\"On Physical Culture and Sports...\" defines professional sports as entrepreneurial activity," Krasheninnikov explained, "and on the other hand, it is established that the activities of professional athletes are regulated by labor legislation, which is typical for employees \". As a result of this contradiction, according to Krasheninnikov, "our professional sports organizations find themselves in an unequal position with similar foreign structures, for example, when players move from one club to another. After all, according to labor law, any employee can quit his job at any time by submitting a letter of resignation.

Another sharp corner is the transition from club to club. It should be remembered that in the Regulations of the Dance Sport Federation \"On the procedure for the transfer of dance couples and individual athletes from club to club\" it is indicated: \"In all cases, a couple or an athlete are obliged to return to the club from which they leave, the material assets belonging to this club, and fulfill their financial obligations to this club on the date of filing an application for transfer to the relevant Presidium. sports club to another\": \" Sport Club, into which a dancing couple or an athlete passes, pays compensation to the sports club from which they transferred in the next size ...\". Nevertheless, at the moment, in reality, the dancers themselves pay for their transition. Maybe it was the agreement between the dancer and the club that would solve this issue? The question remains only that the legislation talking about labor contract.

The conclusion can be drawn such that the worst thing that threatens the dancers with changes is a mandatory annual medical check with a mark in the sports passport. Only now, not all dance clubs and dancers are assigned to physical education dispensaries, where, in theory, athletes should be observed (and not in ordinary city clinics). And the question is whether the existing dispensaries will be able to withstand such an influx of new athletes. If the dancers in his sports passport would have a mark on the medical examination and accident insurance, then there would be no need to constantly carry a whole bunch of paper documents with them to tournaments.

Every situation has its positive and negative sides. Of course, only professionals can count on the contract and\"salary \" from the federation. And amateurs, most likely, will be affected by these changes a little. And while the status and provisions of amateur sports in the legislation raise questions. It is hardly worth counting on professional free special medical supervision and other changes in our lives. I would just like to believe that all the changes will gradually be beneficial and will not remain just pieces of paper, and on March 11 at the round table the people on whom the fate of the dancers so much depend will make the right decision in this situation.
