Dwain Chambers will represent his native country at 2012 Olympics

The runner Dwain Chambers, who successfully served his 2-year ban for intake of anabolic steroids, was named the representative of Great Britain in the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Chambers troubles about the way to represent the native country. As for the British Olympic Association (BOA), they are not happy to see him participating in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Certain former British Olympians don’t support the steroid user too.
Dwain Chambers administered the steroid tetrahydrogestrinone (THG) introduced by Patrick Arnold. After Don Catlin developed a method which could detect THG, Dwain Chambers tested positive for this steroid. It was on November 7, 2003.
Of course, intake of the steroid destroyed his reputation. When he tried to come back to professional sports, the BOA made the decision to alter the laws in order to prevent appearing of Dwain Chambers in the 2012 Olympics. The BOA has established the rules that ban steroid users from Olympics for the whole life.
Establishing this rule, the BOA violated the doping code of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). This factor caused numerous disputes and news.
The case was even presented in the Court of Arbitration for Sports. The chairman of the BOA Loyd Moynihan put significant efforts in order to prevent appearing of Dwain Chambers or other steroid users at Olympics. Such former Olympians, as Sebastian Coe and Daley Thompson, loudly supported efforts of the BOA.
 Daley Thompson stated that Britain should not compromise. He confirmed that Britain should not listen to the rest of the world that don’t desire to have high standards in sports. The Court of Arbitration for Sports acted on behalf of the WADA. Dwain Chambers was allowed to be the representative of Britain at the 2012 Olympics. This aspect turned out to be an open door for other athletes that have served their suspensions to take part in Olympics.
The cyclist David Millar and the shot-putter Carl Myerscough that have served their suspensions for usage of steroids will compete at the 2012 London Olympics as well.
Despites spending much time to prevent appearing of steroid users at Olympic Games, the BOA finally stated that not only Chambers but also Millar, Myerscough or any other athlete that has served a suspension successfully may compete at Olympic Games. Andy Hunt, the CEO of the BOA, has claimed that any sportsperson is treated the same way.
