WDSA (UK) Anti-Doping Rules
The WDSA (UK) has produced a new version of its Anti-Doping Rules that have come into immediate effect. The rules comply with the requirements of International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and WADA, the World Anti-Doping Agency. All competitors registered to play in WDSA (UK) sanctioned competitions are subject to random anti-drug testing and should be aware of the rules. Particular attention should be taken with regard to the application procedure for the use of drugs for therapeutic purposes. Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) must be obtained if any drug on the banned list is used for therapeutic purposes.
