We invite athletes, National and Regional Anti-Doping Organizations, Sports Federations, Governments, Major Event Organizers, and all other anti-doping stakeholders from around the world to join us in the largest celebration of clean sport.  

Please stay tuned for more details and a toolkit for how you can participate. In the meantime, we would kindly ask you to share this message with athletes and others within your network.

History of Play True Day 

Play True Day was inspired by a 2013 WADA-hosted Education Conference in 2013, where 17 Latin American countries came together to talk about clean sport. What started as a small regional event has now grown into a worldwide movement, bringing together millions of people every year! In 2024, on its 10th anniversary, Play True Day generated on social media, nearly 200 million impressions1 and 260,000 engagements2 worldwide.   

Should you have any questions or comments, we invite you to contact WADACommunications@wada-ama.org.
