Clean Sport Starts with Knowledge: FIAS to Host Anti-Doping Webinar

What does an athlete need to know to stay on the right side of the rules – even unintentionally? On 23 September, the International Sambo Federation (FIAS), together with the International Testing Agency (ITA), will host the Clean Sport Education Webinar, giving athletes the chance to get answers to their key anti-doping questions straight from the source.

The event is aimed at elite-level athletes and designed to help them understand how the anti-doping system works. As the organizers point out, knowing the rules – and understanding how they apply in practice – is essential for staying within them and protecting one's integrity.

During the webinar, participants will receive key information on anti-doping and work through practical scenarios to help them make informed decisions with confidence. A dedicated segment will be set aside for a live Q&A session, and athletes are encouraged to prepare their questions in advance.

The webinar will be delivered in English, with simultaneous translation into French, Spanish and Russian, as well as automated captions. All participants will receive a PDF of the presentation, including links to the resources covered.
