UK Anti-Doping investigates Rugby League official for alleged drug supply to players

UK Anti-Doping has started an investigation into a senior Rugby Football League official accused of supplying recreational drugs to players. The inquiry began after the RFL reported allegations involving the official to UKAD last month. The investigation focuses on claims that the official provided drugs to up to six players, including ex-professionals and coaches. Allegations suggest the official bought cocaine for personal use and arranged sales to players. Rugby league has faced scrutiny over drug use, with several players recently banned for drug violations. Concerns about recreational drug use in the sport have grown, with some club owners acknowledging it as a significant issue.
