The intrinsic value of sport, often called “the spirit of sport” is the ethical pursuit of excellence through the dedicated perfection of each athlete’s natural talents. Clean sport is an environment where the health of athletes is protected and where they are provided with the opportunity to pursue high level performance without the use of prohibited substances and prohibited methods.

• Health
