In solidarity with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), members of the Alliance of Independent Recognised Members of Sport (AIMS) are joining hands to celebrate Play True Day 2024, as they collectively contribute to building the #OnePlayTrueTeam.
Born during an educational conference convened by WADA in 2013, Play True Day has evolved into an annual initiative embraced by millions worldwide. This year, AIMS members stand alongside global sporting community in amplifying the message of clean sport to athletes and sports enthusiasts alike.
“At AIMS, we believe in the power of unity and collaboration in the pursuit of clean sport. Play True Day serves as a reminder of the importance of integrity and fair play in sports, and as members of the global sporting community, we are proud to stand together with WADA in promoting these values,” says AIMS President Stephan FOX.
At its core, Play True Day serves as a crucial platform for educating athletes and the broader public about anti-doping principles and the importance of making ethical choices. Through a range of educational materials and initiatives, Play True Day empowers individuals to uphold the integrity of sport and make informed decisions.
Under the banner of #OnePlayTrueTeam, WADA calls upon the global anti-doping community to unite in support of clean sport. This inclusive initiative aims to recognize and celebrate everyone who contributes to an athlete’s journey, from coaches and doctors to family members, colleagues, friends, and supporters.
AIMS members are proud to stand as integral components of the #OnePlayTrueTeam, affirming their commitment to promoting clean sport and upholding the values of honesty, fairness, and respect. By joining forces with WADA and the global anti-doping community, AIMS members champion the spirit of collaboration and solidarity in the pursuit of a level playing field for all athletes. Today AIMS members reaffirm their dedication to building a world where sports are free from doping, and where every athlete has the opportunity to compete with integrity and pride. Together, as part of the #OnePlayTrueTeam, they send a resounding message that clean sport is everyone’s responsibility and privilege.
