The Athletes’ Anti-Doping Ombuds is a valuable resource that athletes can safely turn to for help with anti-doping related matters. The Ombuds provides athletes with cost-free, confidential, neutral, and fair advice and assistance in relation to the World Anti-Doping Program and the anti-doping entities that operate within the anti-doping system.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about how the Ombuds can support you and enhance your understanding of anti-doping matters.
