POSTED DAE : Dec. 10, 2015
The World Anti-Doping 2016 Prohibited List will come into effect on 1st January 2016. There are no substantive changes compared with the 2015 version of the Prohibited List. A few additions, a replacement and clarifications occurred. If you need to refer to the List, make sure it is the 2016 version, which can be found at: https://wada-main-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/resources/files/wada-2016-prohibited-list-en.pdf
Remember, that as an athlete you are responsible for what you ingest. Avoid taking any medications unless you are certain that they are permitted. Supplements may contain prohibited substances as there is no regulation regarding the contents or quality of their manufacture, so inaccurate labelling and contamination can occur. It is not possible to be certain what is in a supplement, so be very careful and avoid all but simple B, C and D vitamins.
Wishing you all a fun and successful 2016 squash season.
Anne Smith
Director WSF Anti-Doping Programme
