Fair play
Fair play is deeply embedded in the
values of EUSA. The objective of
promotion and encouragement of
Fair Play is set already in the statutes
of EUSA, as part of the core objecti-
ves of the organisation. Partnership
with the European Fair Play Move-
ment in 2013 proves this even more.
Since 2007, EUSA announces the best
gesture of fair play in its sports event
for the current year and awards the
winners the special fair play reco-
gnition, Enno Harms Fair Play Award,
named after the first EUSA President,
very much devoted to fair play.
During each of the EUSA sporting
event, the organisers, EUSA repre-
sentatives and technical delegates
pay special attention to the fair play
gestures and attitude. At every sports
event a part of the protocol is the
oath of the athletes and officials,
which includes respecting fair-play.
In some team sports, the athletes
demonstrating fair play during the
matches, following the rules and
pursuing a “clean” game are awarded
with a fair play recognition already
during the event. The prestigious
annual EUSA Enno Harms Fair Play
Award, though, is awarded to the
best example of fair play, for the
individual’s or team’s mentality and
actions which stand out the most.
EUSA Executive Committee mem-
bers on its last meeting in a year
discuss the proposals received from
all sporting events governed by EUSA
in that year and select the team or
individual to receive the annual fair
play award which is formally han-
ded to them at a special occasion
– usually at an EUSA Gala event.

Anti-Doping Policy
Doping is not a guarantee of success
in sport. In fact, its effect is usually the
opposite. A lot of elite sportsmen and
sportswomen who did doping got
caught. As a result, they lost pride and
were banned for at least 2 years from
participating in a sport they loved and
lived for. An even bigger problem of
doping are the effects on the body.
In elite sports, doping is defined
as a violation of one or more
anti-doping rules:
1 Presence of a prohibited substance in an athlete’s sample
2 Use or attempted use of a prohibited substance or method
3 Refusing to submit sample collection after being notified
4 Failure to file athlete whereabouts information & missed tests
5 Tampering with any part of the doping control process
6 Possession of a prohibited substance or method
7 Trafficking a prohibited substance or method
8 Administering or attempting to administer a prohibited substance or method to an athlete
You can find the list of prohibited
substances and methods on the in-
ternet. It’s updated every year by the
World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)
and it’s valid for every sport. You
should check every substance you are
taking. Athletes need to completely
avoid steroids, erythropoietin (EPO),
stimulants, human growth hormo-
ne (HGH), marijuana and narcotics,
and pay special attention also to
dietary or nutritional supplements.
EUSA is active in Anti-Doping
promotion, and has been a partner in
the European Anti-Doping Initiative
(EADI), project aimed at establishing
an European-wide Anti-Doping men-
tality in the youth sector by establis-
hing a moral tenor towards concepts
such as Fair-play, sensitizing and
raising awareness on all levels of the
complex social environment surro-
unding the doping problematic and
implementing strategies to motivate
young people to pass on the message
and create a strong multiplying effect.
Also the International University
Sport Federation (FISU) has been
actively promoting sports without
drugs, also on university sport level.
EUSA is currently not enforcing do-
ping tests at our events. In accordan-
ce with the national legislation of the
host countries, however, doping con-
trols may be implemented by the Na-
tional Anti-Doping Agencies. If such
doping tests are executed, the WADA
rules and regulations are applicable to
all athletes. Please remember that te-
sting can be conducted in-competiti-
on and out-of-competition. If you are
identified in a Registered Testing Pool
(RTP), you must provide current and
accurate whereabouts information.
What can you do to be an excellent
sportsman or sportswoman?
• Practise right and live healthy
• Get more information about consequences of Doping
• Play fair and be a good role model to younger athletes
• BE COMMITED TO SPORT WITHOUT DOPING
Doping? No, thanks!

About Karate in Croatia
As in most European countries Karate
started to be practiced in judo clubs.
The beginnings of karate training
were in the judo club “Kata” after
its foundation in 1957. The Kore-
an coach Trin Tan Tan was the first
to demonstrate the art of karate in
Croatia 1960 in the hall of the Aca-
demic judo club “Mladost”, Zagreb.
At the end of 1966 the first ka-
rate club KK “Lika” was founded.
The first Croatian karate clubs in
1967 were combined in the Cro-
atian Karate Committee, whose
chairman was Zarko Modric.
What followed was a struggle for
affirmation of Croatian karate in the
world and strengthening the Croatian
Karate Organization, which was not
easy, considering that for years we
had no influence nor excessively high
contact at international level. Howev-
er, a few medals arrived and the state
of Croatian karate status improved.
At the beginning of this millennium
we strengthened the international posi-
tion, began to intensively educate judg-
es and trainers, and under new leader-
ship, the Union developed many small
and mid-spread karate clubs through-
out Croatia, so that today we have 163
members in the Karate Union with
nearly 15 thousand registered partici-
pants and equally as many recreational
athletes. But that’s not all, in Croatia
there are about 150 clubs with over 10
000 students in karate schools, which
due to various obstacles are not qual-
ified for a membership in the Alliance.
Nevertheless the Alliance is working on
how to help them and their commu-
nities in order to create conditions
for inclusion in a competitive system.
The results are more than excellent,
because karate is the most successful
Croatian sport with the most medals at
European and World Championships.
