Anti-doping Education Program

Are you sending your athletes and coaches to national competitions unprepared and uninformed?

Sport NB has developed a one hour educational session that will cover topics that all athletes, coaches, parents and participants should know about doping. In co-operation with the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport we have trained province-wide instructors that believe in a fair, ethical, drug-free sport system. They will discuss the ethical and legal implications the threat to public support, the serious health concerns, and the process if an athlete is chosen to be tested.

Education is the first step to Drug-Free sport.

Sessions discuss..

  • What is Doping?
  • Doping Control Procedures
  • Athletes Rights
  • Prohibited Substances and Methods
  • Restricted Substances
  • Common Issues: asthmas medications, supplements etc.
  • Canadian Policy on Penalties for Doping in Sport
  • Substance Inquiries

Sessions cost $75 (plus travel if necessary) which includes an overhead presentation.
