Drug testing in foosball is so unnecessary. What a waste of time and money.

🚨 Anti-Doping Controls at the ITSF World Cup 2025 🚨

As part of our ongoing commitment to fair play and clean sport, anti-doping controls will be conducted at the ITSF World Cup 2025 in Zaragoza, Spain.


🧪 Who Will Be Tested?
The winners of the Men's and Women's Singles will be subject to doping tests.

📅 When?
Testing will take place on Thursday, June 26, immediately after the finals.

🔍 What Will Be Tested?
Urine tests will primarily screen for cannabinoids (including cannabis) and stimulants (such as co***ne), in line with international anti-doping standards.

🧑‍⚕️ How Does It Work?
Winners will be escorted by authorized attendants (of the same s*x) to the testing area. The procedure involves direct observation — a standard and essential part of ensuring sample integrity.

📄 Therapeutic Use Exemptions (TUEs)
If you're undergoing medical treatment that may affect your test, you can apply for a TUE. Details are available on our website:
