Anti-doping measures
Anti-doping measures are protocols designed to ensure fair play in sports by preventing athletes from using banned substances or methods that enhance performance unfairly. This involves strict testing of athletes’ blood and urine samples before, during, and after competitions to detect illegal doping. Sports organizations also set clear rules about prohibited substances and educate athletes about the risks and ethics of fair competition. The goal is to maintain integrity, health, and equality in sports, ensuring that victories are earned through talent and hard work, not artificial enhancements.
