Anti-Doping

Archery NI Anti-Doping policy

All athletes have the right to compete in sport knowing that they, and their competitors, are clean. We believe in clean sport and work in partnership with UK Anti-Doping (UKAD), Archery GB and World Archery, to ensure that the integrity of our sport is protected.

Anti-Doping Rules

Archery NI fully adopts the anti-doping rules as detailed by Archery GB.

AGB has in place a set of anti-doping rules that all athletes and athlete support personnel must abide by. These are consistent with the World Anti-Doping Code (the Code), the core document that harmonises anti-doping policies, rules and regulations within sport globally.

The anti-doping rules of AGB are the rules published by UK Anti-Doping (or its successor), as amended from time to time. If you are a member of Archery NI & Archery GB then the anti-doping rules apply to you, regardless of what level you participate at. You can find the UK Anti-Doping Rules here and find the Archery GB anti-doping policy webpage here .
