UK Sport is the
United Kingdom's organisation for directing the development of
sport within the
home countries. It is accountable to the
Department for Culture, Media and Sport: disbursing Government funding and acting as the statutory distributor of
National Lottery grants.
It is under the direction of UK Sport's Council. The board is chaired by Sue Campbell (appointed for a four year term from March 2005). Four organisations fulfill roles for the four individual nations:
Sport England,
sportscotland,
Sports Council for Wales and
Sport Northern Ireland.
Succeeding the
Sports Council of Great Britain, Sport UK was established in 1996 by
Royal Charter.
UK Sport is the official sports body that governs drugs testing of athletes in the UK on a regular basis. Testing is conducted by a Doping Control Officer (DCO) from Britain's National Anti-Doping Organisation (NADO). It is a subsection of the internationally recognised and authoritative
World Anti-Doping Agency (WADO). WADO is recognised by the
Olympic Games and
Commonwealth Games.
