Within any sport Anti-Doping is a critical part, not only for athlete safety but to ensure fair competition.
In Equestrian Sports we have 2 athletes to consider; Human and Equine. Human antidoping is via UKAD and equine antidoping under BEFAR & FEI.
We've put together a selection of resources and videos that are really useful for athletes at all levels.
Equine Anti - Doping
All up to date information regarding testing is available via the FEI Clean Sport website. This included the 'Equine Prohibited Substances List' (EPSL) and some useful FAQs.

This is available on the Apple and Google App Stores for free.

British Equestrian have a web page dedicated to clean sport. They also enforce anti-doping for Equine Sports in the UK via BEFAR.
They have templates for Medication and Feed/Supplement logs which athletes should be keeping.
