Para Snowboard Team Leaders' Guide - December 2021
Welcome

                 On behalf of the Beijing 2022 Para Snowboard team, it is a pleasure to extend a
                 warm welcome to all the Athletes and Team Officials in Beijing.

                 With our commitment to deliver a green, inclusive, open and clean Games, the
                 Genting Snow Park is the only one of the seven snow sports competition venues
                 that has been transformed from an existing ski resort, reaching the highest level
                 of green building evaluation standard.

                 Despite the challenges we are facing due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, I believe
                 the spirit of sport will heal, inspire and encourage all the participants and audience
                 during the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games. You may find essential information
                 about your discipline, the venue and all the services and facilities in this Guide that
                 have been prepared to support you during your time in Beijing.

                 We look forward to your continuous support in helping us stage a joyful
                 rendezvous upon pure ice and snow. With its rich history and sophisticated
                 modernity, traditional culture and modern civilization, Beijing stands ready to
                 become the first city in the world to host both the Summer and Winter editions of
                 the Paralympic Games, and to welcome friends from all over the world.

                 Good luck!

                                                                                       Peng ZHANG

                                                                                        Beijing 2022

Doping Control

                 General Principles
                 Beijing 2022 is committed to implement the doping control programme with
                 high standard and quality under the direction of IPC. Beijing 2022 will ensure the
                 doping control programme compliant with the World Anti-Doping Code so as to
                 protect clean sports, clean athletes and athletes’ right.
                 The IPC will develop the Test Distribution Plan. Samples of doping control will be
                 analyzed according to the 2022 Prohibited List of the World Anti-Doping Agency
                 (WADA) in WADA accredited anti-doping laboratory.
                 During the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games, Doping Control Stations will
                 be operating at all Competition Venues, 3 Paralympic Villages and Medals Plazas.
                 Doping Control Stations in the Paralympic Villages are close to the Polyclinics.
                 Beijing 2022’s testings start from the opening of the Paralympic Village on
                 February 25, 2022 until the Closing Ceremony on March 13, 2022. Urine and/or
                 blood samples will be collected. Testings include In-Competition and Out-Of-
                 Competition testings. In-Competition means the period commencing at 11:59 p.m.
                 on the day before a competition in which the athlete is scheduled to participate
                 through the end of such Competition and the sample collection process related to
                 such Competition. Out-Of-Competition means anytime that is not In-Competition.
                 Out-Of-Competition testings start on the opening day of the Paralympic Village
                 and take place in the Doping Control Station in the Paralympic Villages. If (NADO)
                 and Regional Anti-Doping Organization (RADO) to ensure athletes are tested
                 regularly, out-of-competition prior to the commencement of the Games.
                 an athlete resides outside the Paralympic Village, Out-Of-Competition testing
                 may be implemented in the athlete’s residence. What’s more, some Out-Of-
                 Competition testings may happen in the training venues. In-Competition testings
                 often take place in the Doping Control Stations in competition venues. Athletes
                 receive testings after their competitions. All the Doping Control facilities are
                 accessible to athletes with impairments. During the Games-time, Doping Control
                 Command Centers will be set up to manage the operation of Doping Control
                 Stations in the Paralympic Villages, competition venues and Medals Plazas of 3
                 Competition Zones, and report technical issues directly to the IPC.

                 24-hour security will be provided for competition venues, non-competition
                 venues (excluding airports), and training venues. Pedestrian and vehicle security
                 screening points will be set at the entry of the venue perimeter. To access the
                 locked-down venues, all pedestrians must present valid tickets and passes
                 and vehicles must present valid passes. The pedestrians and vehicles must go
                 through ticket and/or pass check and security screening before they can enter
                 the perimeter. The perimeter of a competition venue is divided into the front yard
                 and the back yard, with the pedestrian and vehicle flows respectively created for
                 different client groups. Security personnel are in place within the perimeters to
                 provide security services for various client groups.
                 Multiple venues located within the same perimeter form a cluster that will be
                 provided with 24-hour security. For venue clusters such as the venue cluster of
                 Beijing Olympic Park Center Zone, the Capital Stadium Cluster, the venue cluster
                 in Yanqing Competition Zone, the Genting Snow Park Cluster and Guyangshu
                 Cluster, pedestrian and vehicle security screening points will be set at the entry of
                 the cluster perimeter. To access venues in the cluster, all pedestrians must present
                 valid tickets and passes and vehicles must present valid passes. The pedestrians
                 and vehicles must go through ticket and/or pass check and security screening
                 before they can enter the cluster perimeter. Then at each venue within the cluster

Mixed Zones and Press Conferences

                 General Principles for Interview Facilities
                 The OCOG provides designated areas at all competition venues and the Paralympic
                 Village in which media organisations may interview Athletes and Team Officials.
                 At each competition venue these interview facilities include a Mixed Zone in
                 which athletes may be interviewed as soon as they leave the FOP.
                 The location and smooth running of these facilities is an important element in the
                 success of the Games coverage.
                 IFs and NPCs provide all the necessary assistance to the IPC, the OCOG and OBS
                 in the mutual interests of all the partners concerned.
                 The final location, layout, policies and procedures for the management and
                 operation of all Mixed Zones are agreed by OBS and Press Operations in
                 cooperation with Sport and the Venue Media Team and approved by the IPC.

Mixed Zone Operations
                 Mixed Zone General Principles
                 · An effective Mixed Zone is vital in providing Games-time operations for athletes
                   and the media.
                 · In the Mixed Zone, the media are expected to be courteous to athletes
                   experiencing extremes of emotion or fatigue following their competitions, while
                   the athletes are expected to respect that the media have an important role to
                   play in publicising their achievements and their sport.
                 · All athletes must pass through the Mixed Zone when leaving the Field of Play.
                   They are encouraged to participate in interviews, however they are not obliged
                   to answer questions or participate in interviews if they do not wish to do so.
                   Athletes must keep two metres from the Media at all times in the Mixed Zone.
                 · Mixed Zone will be operational during all training sessions in the competition
                   venues. The practice venues will operate under the same rules as during the
                   competitions, that is, athletes must leave the Field of Play through the Mixed
                   Zone but are not obliged to talk with the media.
                 · The IPC requests that the Beijing 2022, IFs and NPCs provide all the necessary
                   assistance to ensure the smooth operation of the Mixed Zone.
                 Mixed Zone Management
                 · Beijing 2022 Sport FA is responsible for escorting athletes from the Field of Play
                   to the entrance of the broadcast Mixed Zone, but not through the Mixed Zone.
                 · OBS and Press Operations are responsible for escorting athletes through their
                   respective sections of the Mixed Zone.
                 · OBS is responsible for the Rights Holding Broadcasters’ section of the Mixed
                   Zone. Beijing 2022 Press Operations is responsible for the Press section of the
                   Mixed Zone.
                 · Only those with an operational role in the Mixed Zone i.e., competing athletes,
                   media, OBS, Mixed Zone supervisors, doping control, OIS flash quote reporters,
                   IPC media operations, registered NPC press attachés and others are permitted
                   into their respective areas of the Mixed Zone.
                 · Coaches of non-team sports, managers and/or individual athletes’ agents,
                   security, and volunteers are not permitted in any area of the Mixed Zone.
