Swiss shoe company On has signed a partnership agreement with the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) that will help fund extra anti-doping tests for its sponsored athletes.
The deal will expand the World Athletics' Registered Testing Pool(RTP) and strengthen the Road Running Integrity Programme, the AIU said.
On joined major sportswear brands Adidas, ASICS and Nike, which have committed financially to the programme since 2019.
The company, however, becomes the first to fund the inclusion of additional athletes in the RTP.
