Abstract

Detecting the presence of over-age players in age-related tournaments has been a difficult challenge for many sports organizations. "Age-doping" is a form of cheating that involves falsification of information about the age of a player to gain advantage in the sport. This clearly contradicts the ethics of sport and Fair Play.
