DRUG FREE ATHLETE

CORE VALUES

STRENGTH - We believe strength can be measured in many ways. Although we encourage physical strength and the pursuance of "being the best you can be" we also believe our values should be strong. We encourage all Drug Free Athletes to make a strong stand against the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs. It is our belief that the use of performance enhancing drugs can be unhealthy, unethical and in most cases illegal.

INTEGRITY - The Drug Free Athlete stands for and believes in the fundamental right to compete on a level playing field. Integrity should always be an essential component of athletic competition. The integrity of competition in many sports has been threatened by the dishonest athletes and coaches that elect to use drugs in order to enhance their chances of winning. This "win at all cost" attitude has caused many athletes to abandon their own integrity as well as the integrity of their sport.

EQUALITY - We are committed to equal treatment of fellow athletes. All Drug Free Athletes are very important regardless of their status in any respective sport or profession. We are committed to the idea that the "average everyday athlete" is equal their more accomplished counterparts. Every athlete is equal.
