sanctioned by
the association for any student with a | ||
confirmed positive test result or any student who refuses | ||
to submit to random testing; | ||
(9) provide for a school or team penalty on a | ||

administration of this Section. | ||
(e) Results of a performance-enhancing substance test | ||

Department of Public Health to distribute as grants to pay the | ||
costs of the performance-enhancing substance testing program | ||
established under subsection (d) of this Section. The General | ||
Assembly may appropriate additional funding for the testing | ||
program, to be distributed as grants through the Department of | ||
Public Health. | ||
(g) Subdivision (1) of subsection (b) of this Section does | ||
not apply to the use by a student of a performance-enhancing | ||
substance that is dispensed, prescribed, delivered, or | ||

purpose
and in the course of professional practice, and the | ||
student is not
subject to a period of ineligibility under | ||

student with a copy of the association's most current banned | ||
drug classes list, the student has consulted with his or her | ||
medical practitioner to confirm the valid use of the substance, | ||
and the student has notified his or her coach or a school | ||
administrator of a prescription for the use of the substance | ||
for valid medical purposes. Students that are prescribed such a | ||
substance, after receiving a copy of the association's most |
current banned drug classes list, are required to provide | ||
notice of that prescription at the time the prescription is | ||
issued. Any information concerning a student's use of a | ||
performance-enhancing substance obtained by a coach or school | ||
administrator under this subsection (g) is confidential and may | ||
be disclosed only to those persons necessary to the | ||
determination of eligibility under this subsection (g). | ||
(h) Neither the association nor any of its directors or | ||
employees shall be liable and no cause of action may be brought | ||
against the association or any of its directors or employees | ||
for damages in connection with the performance of the | ||
association's responsibilities under this Section, unless an | ||
act or omission involved willful or wanton conduct. | ||
