Athletes educating athletes
Our educators are all current or former athletes. They understand the unique pressures of the athlete lifestyle and the challenges it can present. They bring to their anti-doping education sessions a wealth of knowledge, personal experience, and the weird and wonderful anecdotes they've picked up along the way.
All our athlete educators have been police vetted and have completed extensive training in anti-doping education delivery.
