Supporting athletes

Your role in clean sport

We all have a duty to protect clean sport. Athlete Support Personnel, Coaches, Parents and Carers of young athletes are vital to helping us ensure that sport is clean. UK Anti-Doping’s education and information programmes can support you in your career to ensure you and your athletes engage in sport in line with the values of clean sport, and the Anti-Doping Rules.

Anti-Doping Rules & Violations

Remember the Anti-Doping Rules do not just apply to athletes. They apply to support personnel, too.
