Tokyo, Japan, December 30, 2019: The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) and the Japanese Anti-Doping Agency (JADA) have announced that the effective education programme on clean and fair sport was delivered to more than 1,500 elite-level senior and junior athletes.

The programme was presented to the athletes and their support personnel at the 34th FIG Trampoline Gymnastics World Championships and the 27th FIG Trampoline Gymnastics Age Group Competitions in Tokyo recently. Both events were test events for the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020. 

This joint initiative was aimed at raising awareness about athletes’ responsibilities for clean and fair sport, acting as role models or good influencers. 

The issue of how they can reflect their roles and responsibilities in their performance was also addressed.
