ENGSO LOGO Poem
An azure bridge and a yellow star          There are those who might ask, why they are          The ENGSO logo, and what they mean          The answer's our aims, our hopes, our dream                    The bridge it will help span many a gap          People may cross without fear or mishap          It will link all the nations from every place          No matter the colour, the gender or race                    A star is a symbol, it shines in the sky          It's something to aim for no matter how high          From beginners to veterans there's always a place          For all who take part and join in the race                    At the ENGSO Assemblies we are but a few          Of the many millions, who want us to do          Our best representing their wishes and dreams          for the future of sport and all that it means                    So welcome dear friends both the old and the new          Your commitment ot ENGSO will see us get through          Our tasks, which are many with objectives so high          But our bridge it will help reach that star in the sky.

The ENGSO Declaration on Doping in Sport
Adopted by the ENGSO General Assembly

In Stockholm April 25-26, 2003

 

               The participants unanimously declared

 

that doping in sport is contrary to the spirit of sport, and that the fight against doping in sport shall be intensified, accelerated, harmonized and unified

that all members of ENGSO should accept the World Antidoping Code as the basis for the fight against doping in sport throughout the world, and work for the implementation of it within their own National Organisation

that they, as a consequence, are ready to adapt and harmonize their statutes to the WADA Anti-Doping Code

that they activate themselves in informing and educating their National Sport Federations about the aim and contents of the Code and about their respective responsibilities

that they actively contribute in increasing the number of national tests, mainly so called “out of competition tests”

that they through information, education and campaigns take strong action against doping – all in order to change the attitude and behaviour when it concerns doping in sport

that they recommend their governments, if they have not yet signed “the Copenhagen declaration on Anti–Doping in sport 2003”, to do so as soon as possible, to support the implementation, and

 

Finally expressed that:

“The Antidoping work is a crucial question for the future of sport – a question of the Credibility of Sport”
