  11. Drugs that produce an ergogenic effect or act as an ergogenic aid - they improve performance above what might be achieved normally
  12. Performer still needs psychological & physiological qualities to train hard – no drug can replace that! BUT clear that PED’s can make the difference from fourth to GOLD! PED’s are most common in sports that have a high proportion of closed skills – where the relationship between psychological attributes & success is most clearly linked & direct Less evidence of PED’s in highly interactive sports with many open-skill situations BUT this could also be as a result of weaker testing regimes PED’s DO NOT guarantee success
  13. Every sport and every national and international governing body is engaged in trying to FIND, PUNISH & PREVENT the use of PED’s by performers & coaches How do they do this? Battle against the use of drugs
  14. Testing regimes & laboratory facilities to test performers Taking punitive action against those who have been proved to have used banned substances or have them within their body Trying to educate young performers in the ethical & moral case against the use of drugs & ensuring that they are aware of the consequences as a performer & on their health Ensure performers are aware of what is allowed & not allowed & what there responsibilities are
  15. What ergogenic effects do these drugs have on a performer/body? Research the drug control measure for your own sport. What sanctions are you likely to face should you be tested positive? Prepare your findings as a bullet-point revision sheet for the rest of the class Look at WADA, NADO & UK Sport to see how they are involved in the battle against drugs Home learning
  16. Drug testing of elite sports performers is expensive and often ineffective. Discuss the suggestion that performance-enhancing drugs should be allowed in competitive sport. (4 marks) Exam questions
