Our Mission
The Fight Against Doping
SLADA implements a wide range of activities to ensure Sri Lankan sport remains clean. From education to enforcement, our work covers every angle of anti-doping.
Doping Control & Testing
We plan and conduct rigorous testing programs for athletes, both in-competition and out-of-competition. Our Doping Control Officers are trained to collect urine and blood samples in strict accordance with WADA's International Standard for Testing and Investigations.
Education & Outreach
Preventing doping starts with education. We conduct workshops, seminars, and outreach programs for schools, sports federations, and universities to raise awareness about the dangers of doping and the importance of fair play.
Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUE)
We manage the TUE process, allowing athletes with medical conditions to use necessary medications that contain prohibited substances, provided they meet specific criteria and obtain prior approval from our expert medical panel.
Intelligence & Results Management
We investigate potential anti-doping rule violations based on intelligence and manage the results of tests. We ensure that the due process is followed in all disciplinary proceedings, upholding the rights of athletes.
