The issue of education is disputed by people that sit on either side of the fence; one side being that the dangers of doping should be taught at the earliest possible opportunity whilst the other believing that a child should not be taught about it until they bring up the subject themselves.

Louis Passfield, head of sport science at the University of Kent, believes the "way to tackle doping is to shift the culture around sport, not simply to target athletes by telling them it’s cheating and bad for their health to dope." The idea of targeting parents and coaches with anti-doping programmes programmes would be revolutionary for the world of sport and could produce some fascinating results. Louis thinks that "education may help but I don’t believe the primary reason for doping is a lack of education. Fundamentally doping is cheating and so it’s a moral or ethical issue, not a lack of information in general". 

In 2014, the World Anti Doping Agency launched their Play True Generation Programme to teach young athletes the benefits of clean sport. Robbie, Seb and Tom discuss what young athletes should be taught and their own doping educations.
