THE Guyana Rugby Football Union (GRFU) yesterday announced that one of its star players, Dwayne Schroeder, who was randomly tested by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WDA) after the team picked up their 7th NACRA 7s Rugby Championship, had his results returned negative. 

Schroeder, a solider by profession, who plays with the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) team locally, is one of Guyana’s leading rugby players. He has been a part and has played a significant role on

every history-making National team.
“Guyana’s Men’s National Sevens Team is subject to international testing for prohibitive substances and prohibitive methods listed in the WADA prohibitive list whenever the team competes internationally and may be subject to ad hoc testing of its athletes at anytime in-between competitions” the GRFU said in a release yesterday.
“The Union is pleased to announce that it has received confirmation of the random testing report of a player (Schroeder) from its team who was required to provide samples for testing for doping control under the WADA Programme at the recent NACRA Sevens Championships in Mexico in December last year and that the results of the tests proved to be negative,” the union added.
According to the Union, World Rugby thanked the GRFU and players for their cooperation and support in keeping the game of rugby drug-free.
