In its mission to champion athletes to achieve their dreams in a fair and healthy way and to inspire the world, USADA makes available a number of ways to report the abuse of performance-enhancing drugs in sport and other anti-doping rule violations. With the help of the sport community, USADA can more effectively identify and hold accountable those who rob clean athletes of a level playing field. The reporting process is confidential and designed to protect those who report information.
How to report a tip
You may report a tip using one of the methods listed here. If you would like to remain anonymous to USADA, do not provide any contact information. However, if you are willing to communicate directly with USADA’s Investigation Team regarding your tip, please provide contact information and someone will respond to you. Please be advised that all Play Clean Center tips are considered confidential information and that speaking to or otherwise communicating with USADA does not change the confidential status of the information provided or waive your right to remain anonymous throughout USADA’s investigation of another person and any resulting disciplinary proceedings.
Thank you for your willingness to protect the rights of clean athletes and the integrity of competition.
