PCB publishes anti-doping regulations Staff Reporter - 18 October 2002
The Pakistan Cricket Board has today released their Anti-Doping Regulations that have been effective from September 2002. The Regulations will apply to all events organised by Pakistan Cricket Board with changes as deemed fit with reference to the circumstances and during course of the event in the Domestic Cricket Structure and may apply to any International Team participating in Pakistan subject to prior Information and agreement. Doping has become a constant preoccupation of International Sports Organizations and State Governments. The fundamental aims of Doping Control Regulations are:
- To uphold and preserve the ethics of sports; Pakistan Cricket Board intends to introduce Doping Control Regulations from September 2002 on regular basis so as to ensure that the results of the matches in its Domestic and International fixtures are a fair reflection of the strength of the contenders. A number of ICC members have their own Anti-Doping Policies/Regulations and Pakistan Cricket Board wishes to do the same. These regulations shall be part of the Constitution of Pakistan Cricket Board. The idea of introducing Anti-Doping Regulations is to ensure safety and health of the players and to respect the good values of this Gentlemen's Game and in line with the ethics of medical practice, in true spirit of Sportsmanship and Fair Play. Pakistan Cricket Board condemns the use of Prohibited Drugs and Substances in Sports and deplores the use of Prohibited Methods by any participant. These Regulations extend to all participants affiliated to Pakistan Cricket Board including all Domestic Players and International visiting teams. Pakistan Cricket Board supports the role of Pakistan Olympic Association and Pakistan Sports Board in its drive to implement Anti-doping Measures. ICC has yet to adopt these or similar Anti-doping Regulations. The Regulations may be viewed or downloaded in Adobe Acrobat pdf format on clicking the link below:
