Berlin - The British Olympic Association (BOA) is to take its case to be allowed to issue life-long Olympic bans to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) recently told the BOA that their policy to issue life-long bans for athletes that had been banned for doping offences was not compliant with their policies.
The BOA said in a statement on Tuesday that they had decided to take the matter to CAS.
