NCAA Drug Testing Policy

The NCAA Drug Testing Policy aims to ensure fair play by detecting the use of banned substances among student-athletes. Athletes can be randomly tested or tested if suspected of doping, with the goal of maintaining integrity and health. A positive test result can lead to penalties such as suspension, loss of eligibility, or disqualification from competition, and athletes have the right to appeal. The policy also emphasizes education about prohibited substances and encourages a drug-free athletic environment. Overall, it promotes fairness, safety, and the integrity of college sports.
