All players are required to comply with the WBF Anti-Doping Regulations. Please ensure that all team members and partnerships have checked the latest WADA Prohibited List which came into force on 1 January 2024. If they are required to take any medication detailed there, they must apply for a Therapeutic Exemption Certificate (TUE) in good time – at least 30 days before the start of the event. Please ensure they read the guidelines for completion of the TUE which must be in English and must also have diagnostic information – also in English – from their physician.

Failure to comply with the Anti-Doping Regulations may result in the player testing positive for a banned substance in which case they could face a four year ban from international or national bridge.
