Summary

This chapter explains the meaning of doping — the use of prohibited substances or methods by athletes to improve performance unfairly — and why it is against the true spirit of sport. It describes common types of doping substances, such as stimulants, anabolic steroids, hormones and diuretics, and prohibited methods like blood doping, along with their serious harmful effects on the health of athletes, including damage to the heart, liver, hormones and mental health. The chapter introduces the role of anti-doping organisations such as the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) in testing athletes and enforcing rules, and the penalties for those found guilty.

By understanding the dangers and unfairness of doping, students learn to value clean, ethical competition and to achieve success through hard work and dedication rather than shortcuts.
