Anti-Doping and Medicines Use
Judo Australia takes a position of zero tolerance toward doping in sport and works closely with Sport Integrity Australia and the World Anti-Doping Authority (WADA) to ensure a fair and safe environment in Judo, and all sports.
We strongly encourage athletes to ensure that they are acutely aware of the most recent banned lists both here in Australia and around the world.

The Sport Integrity Australia app is a free one-stop shop for all sport integrity needs, designed with athletes in mind. The app allows users to check whether their medications are banned in sport, find low risk supplements and check whether they need a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE). Download it HERE.
To ensure that you are ‘in the know’ we recommend following the link to the Sport Integrity Australia website. Take a look around and familiarise yourself with the website, and be sure to regularly update your knowledge of your responsibilities in ensuring a drug-free competition environment.

Mandatory Anti-Doping Education
Judo Australia and Sport Integrity Australia have a co-designed education strategy in place. The main purpose of anti-doping education is to provide athletes, coaches and support personnel with an understanding of the accurate and current anti-doping requirements of the sport.
This is mandatory for our target groups, including high performance athletes and coaches from junior to senior level, as well as team management, support personnel and administration.
All members of Australia’s sporting community can now access a range of anti-doping education programs and contribute to protecting our national sporting integrity through Sport Integrity Australia eLearning by clicking below.
