As one of its major tasks, International e-Sports Federation (IeSF) is keeping its all staffs busy with wrapping up the Sport Accord membership application in order to raise the status of e-sports as one of official sport discipline with recognition of global sport society.
Then, as one of the requirements for the application, IeSF has faced issues to become an Anti-Doping Organization (ADO) as an international sport governing body and to get recognition of World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
In furtherance of its role, IeSF started dedicating its efforts to ensuring that the spirit of Fair Play prevails in e-Sports, and takes measures with the goal of preventing endangering the health of e-sports players. Therefore, with the consensus between IeSF’s mission and the requirement of Sport Accord membership application, IeSF decided to accept the World Anti-Doping Code and its International Standards, and to lead the fight against doping in e-sports.
In a bid of answer to this issue, IeSF Secretariat has established the IeSF Anti-Doping Regulations and IeSF Doping Control Guide Book. First drafts of all necessary documents and structures are finalized, and have been sent to WADA for its evaluation and feedbacks.
Now, IeSF is one more step closer to the global sports society as following its standard, and will keep endeavoring to make e-sports as one of the official sport discipline with its recognition.
All materials related to Anti-Doping program will be disclosed after they are finalized with the evaluation of WADA.
