LONDON (Reuters) - Two Spanish hockey players have been cleared of doping offences, the International Hockey Federation (FIH) said on Friday.
A judicial commission heard that Gloria Comerma had violated anti-doping rules when she was tested at an Olympics qualifier in Baku, Azerbaijan on April 18.
"The FIH judicial commission found that there was an anti-doping rule violation but that she established that there was no fault or negligence on her part so there is no requirement to impose a sanction," the FIH said in a statement on Friday.
A second unnamed Spanish player, tested on April 20, was found to have committed no anti-doping violation, the FIH said.
"Following the decision of the FIH judicial commission, the FIH considers the cases as closed and no other communication will be made."
