Those Who Try To Cheat At Sports By Abusing drugs Can Give Sportspeople A Bad Reputation, But There Is A Fine Line Between Which drugs Are Acceptable In Some Circumstances
Throughout the realm of sport, there are very strict guidelines about what can and cannot be permitted when it comes to boosting a participant’s performance, and most sports also have a zero tolerance attitude when referring to recreational drugs (excluding legal drugs like alcohol).
Many people would surely agree that people who seek to cheat by ingesting drugs should be barred from taking part in their sport and quite properly so, but look a little more deeply and sometimes there are questions to be raised about precisely where the line lies between right and wrong.
One aspect to weigh up is the health circumstances of the participant. Although ingesting steroids over a length of time to build up the body and increase stamina is totally disapproved of, how about the asthma sufferer who has a steroid inhaler to deal with attacks. Those chemicals are still assisting that sportsperson’s performance, albeit that they are permitting them to continue to compete rather than endeavouring to obtain an unfair advantage. Not many people would claim that an asthma sufferer should be deprived of the opportunity to take part in their chosen sport, but one or two would claim that in both cases, drugs are being utilised to enhance performance.
Similarly, those who rely excessively on having outstanding vision to succeed at their chosen sport – for example, golfers – can have Laser eye surgery if they would regularly need to wear glasses to play, but they can also have Laser eye treatment to enhance their vision even if they would not actually be diagnosed at a standard eye test as having to use corrective glasses or lenses. Surely there has to be an argument as to whether having Laser eye surgery to change vision which is not medically defective is similar to taking drugs to increase performance? However there is no move by any sporting committee to ban Laser eye treatment or demand that those who opt to have such an operation should advise them of the fact.
As is obvious to see, something that appears to be quite a clear case of right and wrong rapidly becomes a much more perplexing situation if these questions are asked. In the end, it is a question of what the difference is between allowing assistance to decrease the symptoms of a diagnosed health complaint and allowing enhancements to parts of the body which, at that moment, are not medically viewed as being defective.
