UKAD Educator

Suzanne Potts has joined the team at the BBBofC as the UKAD Educator from December. Having recently received training from UKAD’s National Trainers at Loughborough University she will now be deployed to deliver formal and structured education sessions on anti-doping to boxers, their support personnel and other licence holders.

Suzanne has been an Inspector for more than twenty years working in both the Central and Midlands areas and also became a member of the Central Area Council in 2022. Whilst she will continue with her Central Area duties she will also commence the delivery of a number of sessions aimed at helping boxers compete clean and therefore avoid falling foul of the anti-doping rule violations which can result in a four year ban from the sport.

Suzanne said of her new role “the fight against doping is something all sports must take seriously, by providing education to both boxers and their teams we aim to provide them with the tools to stay clean and protect the integrity of our sport.”

General Secretary, Robert W. Smith said, “We are extremely pleased to have Suzanne on board in our continued endeavours to maintain Clean Sport, as part of the UKAD assurance framework.”
