POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Anti-Doping Policy The Australian Parachute Federation (APF) is the Australian national federation responsible for the air sport discipline of skydiving and is a member of Air Sport Australia Confederation (ASAC). ASAC is the Australian national member of the Federation Aeronautique Internationale (FAI), which is the international federation for air sports. ASAC is also recognised by the Australian Sports Commission as the National Sporting Organisation for air sports. ASAC is responsible to the FAI and Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) to comply with the Anti-Doping policies as issued by the FAI and SIA. ASAC has adopted the Australian National Anti-Doping Policy and the APF, as a member of ASAC, is therefore bound by the ASAC policy. All members, participants and non-participants in the sport of skydiving are bound by these Anti-Doping rules during the conduct of any competition, training or associated air sport event. The full Anti-Doping policy can be found on the SIA website.
