WADA Code

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Code is an international rulebook that sets standards for fair play in sports. It aims to ensure athletes compete honestly by preventing doping—using banned substances or methods to improve performance. The code establishes guidelines for testing, sanctions, and education, promoting integrity across all sports and countries. It creates a consistent framework so athletes, coaches, and organizations understand what is allowed and how violations are handled, helping to maintain a level playing field and protect athletes' health and the spirit of sport.
