Anti-Doping Note For BJA Coaches

You may be aware that the World Anti-Doping Code has been updated this year, and as such has introduced further Assurance Frameworks. As an NGB we have always been extremely proactive in our engagement with UK Anti Doping (UKAD) to promote Clean Sport and protect the integrity of our community. We are currently reviewing our Education Strategy for the next 4 years- skeleton document attached.

 

The reason for the connection is the following:

  1. Would anyone be available to join a session to carryout a full risk analysis ( building on the brainstorm on the attached skeleton)? If so, please email karen.roberts@britishjudo.org.uk
  2. Is there anyone in your Area that you would like to receive Anti-Doping Educator training? Again, if of interest, please contact Karen for further discussion.
  3. Is it possible to add some important links on your Area websites: https://www.britishjudo.org.uk/gb-judo/anti-doping/ https://www.ukad.org.uk/  https://www.ijf.org/cleanjudo https://www.wada-ama.org/?
  4. Finally, if you are interested in existing Education offers, I would usually direct you to the UKAD Learning Zone https://www.ukad.org.uk/about/learning-zone Though this is currently migrating platforms and will not be available until the end of the month.

Thanks for your time, and look forward to hearing from you,

Karen Roberts
