We know that the majority of athletes are clean and abide by the Anti-Doping Rules. We work hard to help protect your reputation and sporting achievements.

We also know that some athletes will choose to cheat – and we work hard to detect doping behaviour and remove those doing so from sport.

We also know that some athletes may be more vulnerable to succumbing to the pressures of doping.

Remember, not knowing is not an excuse – and there is limited sympathy for carelessness in anti-doping.

If you’re found doping and face a ban from sport, that is only the beginning. The consequences of doping to your health, psychological and mental wellbeing – as well as the social and financial consequences – are far-reaching and damaging.

Additional information is available in the current WBF Anti-Doping Rules which came into force on 1st January 2021 and can be downloaded here.
