New FEI ‘Clean Sport’ Website
The FEI is working to combat doping in equestrian sports.
The FEI launched a new website dedicated to its ongoing Clean Sport Campaign.

The website contains information about the new regulations that the FEI is implementing this year to combat doping in equestrian sports. The site is specifically tailored to the needs of athletes, vets, officials, media and others to help them understand their roles in the Clean Sport Campaign.

“We felt it was important to have a dedicated site where people could go to get all the information they needed,” FEI Secretary General Alex McLin said. “We firmly believe this site will raise awareness of our anti-doping efforts and increase overall compliance with the new rules when they come into force on 5 April this year.”

The new website can be found at www.feicleansport.org
