8.30 | TESTING WADA: CAN PROGRESS CONTINUE? 166 governments, all national Olympic Committees, and most sports organisations have accepted the code of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). Undoubtedly political progress but critics argue that WADA's research and testing programmes are insufficient and unable to detect the doping methods that are currently being developed. Play the Game examines the progress of WADA and asks if the widespread accept of the WADA code will make it difficult for organisations wanting more restrictive anti-doping regimes. |
