On 24 July, the National Anti-Doping Center hosted a ceremonial event dedicated to NADC Day, which is celebrated annually on 25 July. This year's event was held in cooperation with the Bowling Federation of Ukraine and brought together representatives of the sports community, government institutions, and partner organizations.

The event gathered NADC staff, representatives of public authorities, the sports community, national sports federations, and international partners.

Welcoming remarks were delivered by Sergii Popyk, First Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine; Vadym Huttsait, President of the National Olympic Committee of Ukraine; Valerii Zlomynoha, Head of the National Anti-Doping Center; and Olha Zavhorodnia, representative of POLADA.

"The National Anti-Doping Center's 24 years of activity reflect the systematic work of our team, strong government support, and effective cooperation with international partners and the sports community. Today, the NADC continues to advance anti-doping education, improve doping control mechanisms, and implement international standards to ensure clean, safe, and fair sport in Ukraine," emphasized Valerii Zlomynoha, Head of the National Anti-Doping Center.

During the ceremony, specialists of the National Anti-Doping Center were presented with Certificates of Appreciation from the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine in recognition of their many years of dedicated service, high professionalism, and significant contribution to the development of anti-doping activities.

"It is a great honor for me to be part of the National Anti-Doping Center's history. Over the past 24 years, the Center has come a long way, and its greatest strength has always been its people—a professional team dedicated to protecting clean sport. I am confident that the NADC will continue to strengthen its position and successfully implement new initiatives for the benefit of Ukrainian athletes," noted Sergii Popyk.

As part of the celebration, the final conference of the joint National Anti-Doping Center–UNESCO project, "Clean Sport Ambassadors: Together Against Doping," was also held. Participants reviewed the project's achievements, discussed its outcomes, and explored future prospects for anti-doping education in Ukraine.

One of the key highlights of the conference was the presentation of video materials produced within the framework of the National Anti-Doping Center and UNESCO project. The videos are designed to promote the values of clean sport, foster a culture of integrity, and raise awareness among athletes, coaches, and the wider sports community about the importance of complying with anti-doping rules.

The National Anti-Doping Center expresses its sincere gratitude to its partners, athlete ambassadors, and everyone who contributed to the implementation of the project, the advancement of anti-doping education, and the strengthening of the culture of clean sport in Ukraine.
