Violence brings sport into disrepute & damages its ability to
encourage children, young people & families to participate
The effect that violence has on
individuals, sport & wider society
Violence of any kind brings a sport into disrepute & damages its
ability to encourage children, young people & families to
participate
Parents are unlikely to let their children participate if:
• If they believe the sport is likely to bring their children into
contact with violence & put their well-being at risk
• If children are encouraged to play inappropriately
• If parents & other supporters abuse officials, opponents or each
other

• Fan violence may lead to poor treatment of legitimate fans &
supporters
• Players injured as a result of foul play may have their livelihoods
& careers curtailed
• players may have their chance at international recognition
damages if whole team is not allowed to play in the competition
• Huge cost of policing & stewarding
• Reputation of the country can be affected when football fans
travel abroad or is seen on television
• Banning of teams can have economic effects that go beyond club
or the individual
• Effect national morale

Drugs that produce an
ergogenic effect or act as an
ergogenic aid - they improve
performance above what
might be achieved normally

performers may take drugs

performers may take drugs

performers may take drugs
Why do
performers
use drugs?
May be tempted
to use them to
speed recovery
from injury
Pressured by
coaches or
team
managers
Lack moral &
ethical
boundaries
Why do
performers
use drugs?
Believe that
‘everybody
else is doing it’
Lack physical &
psychological
attributes to get
to the top
without the use
of banned drugs
Not fully
aware of
the longterm health
risks
Receive the wrong
guidance or
educational
programmes or have
wrong role models
Rewards of
winning are
so great
May not be
fully aware
that they are
using drugs
PED’s DO NOT guarantee success
Performer still needs psychological & physiological qualities to train
hard – no drug can replace that!
BUT clear that PED’s can make the difference from fourth to
GOLD!
PED’s are most common in sports that have a high proportion of
closed skills – where the relationship between psychological
attributes & success is most clearly linked & direct
Less evidence of PED’s in highly interactive sports with many openskill situations BUT this could also be as a result of weaker testing
regimes
Every sport and every national and international
governing body is engaged in trying to FIND,
PUNISH & PREVENT the use of PED’s by
performers & coaches
How do they do this?
Battle against the use of drugs
• Testing regimes & laboratory facilities to test
performers
• Taking punitive action against those who have
been proved to have used banned substances or
have them within their body
• Trying to educate young performers in the
ethical & moral case against the use of drugs &
ensuring that they are aware of the consequences
as a performer & on their health
• Ensure performers are aware of what is allowed
& not allowed & what there responsibilities are
• What ergogenic effects do these drugs have on a performer/body?
• Research the drug control measure for your own sport. What sanctions are
you likely to face should you be tested positive? Prepare your findings as a
bullet-point revision sheet for the rest of the class
• Look at WADA, NADO & UK Sport to see how they are involved in the
battle against drugs

DRUG
EFFECT
Erythropoieti It increases production of red blood cells and haemoglobin, resulting in
n (EPO)
improved movement of oxygen to the muscles.
Anabolic
Increase muscle mass & strength
steroids
(testosterone)
Human
growth
hormone
(HGH)
Stimulates the growth of muscle, cartilage, and bone.
Beta
Blockers
Decrease anxiety, reduce HR
Diuretics
Their purpose is to remove excess water from the body. Firstly to loose weight
rapidly in sports which require the athlete to be within a set weight limit.
Stimulants
speed up the messages to and from the brain. They can make the user feel
more awake, alert or confident. Stimulants increase heart rate, body
temperature and blood pressure. Other effects include reduced appetite, dilated
pupils, talkativeness, agitation and sleep disturbance
Drug testing of elite sports performers is expensive and
often ineffective.
Discuss the suggestion that performance-enhancing drugs
should be allowed in competitive sport.
