In our first edition in December, we invited you to vote on a name for this newsletter, and the results are in. You have officially named it Athlete Corner, and you can find the full breakdown of the vote later in this issue to see just how close it was.

We are back with our second edition, and there is a lot to cover.

Here’s a quick list of what you’ll find:

  • Everything you need to know about the 2027 World Anti-Doping Code.
  • Updates on the Human Rights Impact Assessment and our Athlete Anti-Doping Experience project.
  • Our first Behind-the-Scenes video, with experts from the Prohibited List team answering the questions we hear most from athletes.
  • Highlights from the African and Asian Youth Games as well as the Olympics and Paralympics.
  • Key dates to add to your calendar, including Play True Day and WADA’s upcoming Regional Symposiums.
  • Two surveys in the Feedback Center:
  1. Anti-Doping and Independence – help us strengthen fairness, transparency, and confidence in clean sport
  2. Therapeutic Use Exemptions – let us know what you’d like us to cover on TUEs in our next edition
  • Exciting Athlete Council news, including new members and leadership announcements.

We hope you find this issue informative, and as always, we look forward to hearing from you.
