The Supervisory Board of the National Anti Doping Agency of Germany (NADA Germany) has appointed Dr Andrea Gotzmann and Dr Lars Mortsiefer to the Executive Board for a further term. At the same time, the Supervisory Board confirmed Gotzmann as Chairwoman of the Executive Board.
According to NADA Germany's Foundation Constitution, the Executive Board is appointed by the Supervisory Board every five years; reappointment of the incumbent Executive Board is possible. Gotzmann and Mortsiefer took over as executive directors of the foundation in September 2011 and were reappointed in 2016. They are now entering their third term of office.
"We would like to express our gratitude for the great trust placed in us by the members of the Supervisory Board and their appreciation of our work," Gotzmann and Mortsiefer said. "The anti-doping work represents an important pillar for the integrity of sport in Germany and requires our continuous commitment. The focus of all our measures is the protection of clean athletes. Together with the entire NADA Germany team, we will continue this work in the future with professionalism and motivation," the two board members emphasised.
