True athletes compete clean for many powerful and personal reasons. Seven leading winter athletes have teamed up with USADA to promote the principles of clean sport and fair play through the 'I COMPETE CLEAN because' campaign.

What drives and compels them to train day after day, year after year, putting in all the hard and often painful work necessary for sport success? What motivates them to remain true to the call of clean sport, even when shortcuts exist?

Through this initiative, these athletes met the challenge head on and boldly declared their answers.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) is the national anti-doping organization for the Olympic movement in the United States. Since its inception in 2000, USADA has worked to preserve the integrity of competition, inspire true sport and protect the rights of athletes in the Olympic & Paralympic movement in the United States.

Anti-doping authorities like USADA, as well as sport federations, leagues and organizations around the world also find themselves in a difficult situation. These organizations must consider that clean athletes rely on anti-doping authorities to remove performance-enhancing drug use from sport, including those performance-enhancing drugs found in certain dietary supplements.

However, they also recognize the dilemma facing athletes. It's not surprising that athletes turn to those who manage their anti-doping programs for direction about dietary supplements. After all, USADA provides a straightforward directory which allows individuals to find what medications are prohibited and which are not prohibited. (Global Drug Reference Online)

Why isn’t there similar advice for dietary supplements? Unfortunately, the issue is complicated. Supplements are regulated differently than medications and the industry, as well as those who purchase supplements, think and act differently. As a result, it is impossible for any organization to say with 100% confidence, what substances a supplement contains. And when an athlete or consumer cannot be absolutely certain, what their supplement contains, the door is left open for two very real possibilities:

- A positive anti-doping test result
- Negative and potentially dangerous health issues

Additionally, the number of dietary supplement products in the market is estimated to be more than 75,000 and growing. Because of these reasons, the answers are not straightforward.

In order to provide athletes with basic information about their rights and responsibilities in the doping control process, WADA, in partnership with the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (VANOC), has developed a doping control video.

This 5-minute video is intended to provide a general overview of the doping control process while raising awareness of the athlete’s rights and responsibilities. The video outlines each of the phases of the doping control process:

Athlete selection
Athlete notification
Sample collection
Laboratory analysis
Results management

The video, currently available in nine languages (Arabic, Croatian, English, French, German, Greek, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish), can be ordered by stakeholders at no cost for use as part of their information and education efforts. Those interested in producing a co-branded version of the video with their own logo or a version in their own language (voiceover or subtitles) can contact WADA at info@wada-ama.org.

The World Anti-Doping Agency's (WADA) mission is to lead a collaborative worldwide campaign for doping-free sport.

WADA was established in 1999 as an international independent agency composed and funded equally by the sport movement and governments of the world. Its key activities include scientific research, education, development of anti-doping capacities, and monitoring of the World Anti Doping Code (Code) – the document harmonizing anti-doping policies in all sports and all countries. WADA is a Swiss private law Foundation. Its seat is in Lausanne, Switzerland, and its headquarters are in Montreal, Canada.

WADA works towards a vision of a world where all athletes compete in a doping-free sporting environment.
