The FIVB believes that it is vital that its players are aware of their rights and responsibilities when it comes to Anti-Doping. Therefore the FIVB developed an online Anti-Doping programme “We play it clean!” in order to reach out to its players and Team Support Personnel. Different information and projects which target certain groups and links to other sources are also available.

Supplements
Before you take a supplement you should:
- assess the need - all athletes should seek advice from a medical professional or nutritionist on their need to use supplement products
- assess the risk - undertake thorough research of all supplement products you are considering taking
- assess the consequences - you could receive a four-year ban
To check your supplements : http://www.informed-sport.com
All players are advised to be vigilant in using any supplement. No guarantee can be given that any particular supplement is free form prohibited substances.
An important principle of the Code is that of strict liability, which states that athletes are solely responsible for any prohibited substances they use, attempt to use or is found in their system regardless of how it got there and if there was an intention to cheat. Before taking supplements, athletes must therefore assess the need, risk and consequences to their careers. Diet, lifestyle and training should all be optimised before athletes consider supplements and they should always consult a medical professional or nutritionist and seek advice.
Supplements may claim to be drug-free or safe for drug-tested athletes. It is not possible to guarantee that specific supplements will be free of prohibited substances and athletes can only reduce the risk of inadvertent doping by making informed decisions.
