The Counteraction Against Doping in Youth Sport

The problem of doping in recent years, as well as against the background of the world doping problems related to the investigations of various specialists and participants of the sports industry, which began in 2014, which became extremely acute during the 2018 Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, even more sharply emphasizes the need to combat doping at all levels. And since children's sport is the foundation of the whole system of sports in general, and also due to the globalization of the information space, due to the psychological characteristics of athletes (especially young ones), the impact of doping and its distorted positive image in relation to the sporting result, takes a very topical position. In this regard, it is necessary to begin to counteract doping already at an early stage, namely - with children's sports. The subject of the study was the problem of doping in modern sports, in particular - its degree of integration into children's sports, and its impact on it. The object of the research is the current state of the anti-doping system, its activities in relation to the fundamental level of the sport system, which is children's and youth sports. Based on the results of the study, various measures were proposed to improve the anti-doping system, both from the point of view of legal instruments and managerial and other aspects related to the problem: a set of three educational, managerial and legal decisions is, in the author's opinion, a worthy basis , where you can start to develop some or other measures for the actual implementation of the tasks of eradicating doping in children's and youth sports. Doping in children's and youth sports should not be eliminated, but simply not tolerated by modern, flexible, high-quality and profound specialized solutions: the prospects for their development in the coming years are and only increase with the development of industry, management, sports economy, goal-setting in the industry and other factors.
