| One must also remember that informing
the team doctor of all medical treatment would help the team doctor
take necessary steps to protect the interest and health of the sports
person.
The site for updated news on doping control is:

As defined by FIFA -
"Doping is any attempt by a player himself, or at the instigation
of another person such as his manager, coach, trainer, doctor, physiotherapist
or masseur, to enhance his mental and physical performance unnaturally
or to treat ailments or injury - when this is medically unjustified
- for the sole purpose of taking part in a competition. This includes
using (taking or injecting), administering or prescribing prohibited
substances prior to or during a competition. These stipulations
also apply, out of competition, to anabolic steroids and peptide
hormones, as well as to substances producing similar effects.
Doping contravenes the ethics of sport and constitutes an acute
or chronic health hazard for players, with possible fatal consequences
