For all ATHLETES and ATHLETE SUPPORT PERSONNEL!

Please take the time to go through it and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact the ASNOC office and ask for Herrietta.

It's very important to go through this list, to ensure what you're taking as a supplement, protein drink, pain killer, or what have you is NOT on the prohibited list so to save you from sanction. Sanction meaning you'll get banned from playing your sport for a minimum of 4 years - locally, nationally, and internationally.
