Webinar: Is dope testing still a numbers game?
Is technology being used effectively to drive a proactive, intelligence-led approach to anti-doping, or is testing still confined to a mere ‘numbers game’? This pressing question takes centre stage in our upcoming sports integrity webinar.
On October 5, 2 PM BST, esteemed experts will assess the efficacy of our present strategies in the battle against doping breaches in sports. Our panel will delve into the potential imbalance between quantity and quality, where valuable time, budget, and resources are expended without delivering proportionate gains in testing accuracy.
From safeguarding the anonymity of confidential reporters to the seamless dissemination of intelligence across sporting domains, this webinar will seek to advance beyond the rhetoric to scrutinise the technology advances at our disposal and answer whether we are fully capitalising on these innovations to create more inclusive, athlete-centric anti-doping frameworks.
Sports law expert Richard McLaren joins the panel
