The Anti-Doping Commission of Montenegro successfully conducted an educational workshop focused on anti-doping regulations, in cooperation with the Kickboxing Federation of Montenegro.
The workshop gathered athletes, coaches, and sports professionals who had the opportunity to learn more about prohibited substances, testing procedures, and individual responsibilities in accordance with the World Anti-Doping Code (WADA).
Special emphasis was placed on practical guidance and prevention, aiming to ensure that all participants in kickboxing competitions act in accordance with the principles of fair play and sporting integrity.
This activity marks an important step in strengthening awareness about the fight against doping, and the Anti-Doping Commission of Montenegro will continue to implement educational programs and promote clean sport through similar initiatives in the future.

In cooperation with the Rugby Union of Montenegro, an educational workshop on the topic of doping in sport was held. The goal of the workshop was to inform athletes about the dangers of using banned substances, the procedures involved in doping control, and the importance of preserving the integrity of sport through responsible behavior.
During the session, athletes were presented with up-to-date information on the list of prohibited substances, testing procedures, and the health and career risks associated with doping. Special emphasis was placed on the responsibility that every athlete has towards themselves, their team, and the sport.
The participants showed a high level of interest, asking numerous questions about supplements, medical treatments, and the rules they must follow to stay within legal and ethical boundaries.
Such educational initiatives play a key role in preventing doping and developing healthy habits among athletes, especially younger ones. Through open discussion, questions, and the exchange of experiences, rugby players gained practical knowledge that will help them make informed and responsible decisions throughout their careers.

The Anti-Doping Commission of Montenegro organized an educational workshop focused on anti-doping awareness, with special emphasis on the prevention of the use of prohibited substances, the importance of regularly updating athlete whereabouts (Whereabouts), and familiarization with urine sample collection procedures, in accordance with international anti-doping standards.

The workshop brought together athletes and sports personnel from the Judo Federation of Montenegro, the Bodybuilding Federation of Montenegro, and the Powerlifting Federation of Montenegro. Participants had the opportunity to deepen their knowledge through both theoretical and practical sessions.

Key topics included:

-Fundamental principles of the World Anti-Doping Code (WADA),

-Health risks and consequences associated with the use of prohibited substances and methods (including supplement use),

-Obligations of athletes to update their Whereabouts via the ADAMS platform,

Participants also addressed common challenges athletes face in meeting anti-doping requirements and discussed practical solutions for remaining compliant.

The Anti-Doping Commission of Montenegro continues to implement educational programs across the country, aiming to raise awareness, strengthen the anti-doping culture, and safeguard clean sport.

During the session, they were introduced to the basic rules of anti-doping, the procedures of doping control, as well as the health and ethical risks associated with the use of prohibited substances in sport.
The young athletes proved to be highly engaged participants – they asked questions, shared their opinions, and demonstrated that awareness of the importance of clean sport is present even among the youngest generations.
This educational activity once again confirmed that it is never too early for future professional athletes to become familiar with the principles of fair play and healthy sporting values.
