Urine Testing:
Pro card winners and pros who earn payouts will be urine tested. The ANBF will be using the 2026 WADA Prohibited List as it’s banned substance standard. You, as a competitor, are responsible for knowing the effects that certain supplements may present. Just because you may have bought it over the counter does not mean it is acceptable in the ANBF.
