The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) published the 2026 List of Prohibited Substances and Methods (List), which was approved by WADA’s Executive Committee (ExCo) during its meeting and enters into force on 1 January 2026.
The List is one of the eight International Standards that are mandatory for all Signatories of the World Anti-Doping Code (Code). It designates what substances and methods are prohibited both in- and out-of-competition and which substances are banned in particular sports.
WCBS calls on all athletes, entourage, and all stakeholders to take note of the above changes.
