Steroid Use in Sports
By:Tom Katsaros
CCII 2017
WHAT ISTHE ISSUE?
• The use of performing enhancing drugs is ruining the way the games are
played in all types of sports.
• Athletes are destroying their bodies to gain an upper hand against
opponents.
• Using steroids is considered cheating and is negatively affecting the way
people watch/play sports.
Potential Questions
• What can be done to prevent athletes from obtaining these drugs?
• What measures and precautions can the sports organizations take to
prevent athletes from getting away with cheating?
• How will the athletes be punished if found doing taking steroids?
• Which sport is most associated with performing enhancing drugs?
ResearchAvailable
• Academic Search Premier: EBSCO Host (Rowan Library Database)
• Health Reference Center (Rowan Library Database)
• CNN.com (Many articles on steroids)
Three Specific Sources
• CNN Library. "Performance Enhancing Drugs in Sports Fast Facts." CNN.
Cable News Network, 26 Jan. 2017. Web. 15 Feb. 2017.
• Si. "To Cheat or Not to Cheat." N.p., 29 May 2012. Web. 15 Feb. 2017.
• Hruby, Patrick. "Steroids hysteria might inhibit progress." N.p., 13 Oct.
2010. Web.
Potential Challenges
• Since these topic involves all kinds of sports it is going to be difficult on
touching all of them and not just focusing on one.
• Most of the research is about the negative effects and how people should
not do steroids, so it will be hard to find opposing evidence.
• There are also so many different kinds of drugs that are so called
“performance enhancing”, so to mention all of those could be an issue.
Why is it Relevant/Worth Exploring
• Sports are a very popular/ loved hobby in our society and to keep purity is
key.
• This is very unfair for the all the athletes that dedicate their whole to
becoming the best just to be forgotten by a player who has an unfair
advantage.
• Most people in society have the same feeling with the drug war with sports.
