Supporting Clean Sport

Southampton Athletic Club is committed to providing a clean sporting environment by promoting and implementing the clean sport policies from UK Anti-Doping (UKAD), the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and England Athletics.

We feel passionately that all athletes have the right to train and compete in a clean sport environment. We adopt the stance that cheating, including doping, in sport is fundamentally contrary to the spirit of sport, undermining the otherwise positive impact of sport has on society.

Embodying the correct attitudes now will support the next generation of athletes too – Southampton AC aims to prepare athletes better than ever before with the support of UKAD
