    The human impact of online harm ft. Sarah Cook OLY and Campbell Harrison OLY | Online Safety in Sport Series

    In this episode of On Side, we centre the human experience of online abuse. Olympic sport climber, Campbell Harrison OLY, reflects on the overwhelming wave of global homophobic abuse he received after a single social media post, while Rowing Australia CEO, Sarah Cook OLY, shares the realities of navigating sustained harassment and scrutiny in sport leadership. In a world where athletes and leaders are constantly visible and accessible, online harm is becoming harder to avoid, and its effects go far beyond the screen. Sarah and Campbell unpack: How quickly online attention can escalate into harm The emotional and psychological toll of abuse Where criticism crosses the line into harassment The compounding impacts of gender and identity What meaningful support from communities, organisations and systems really looks like. This is an honest, powerful discussion about resilience, visibility and the collective role we play in shaping safer online environments in sport. If you or someone you know is experiencing online harm, support is available. Reaching out can be an important first step.

    Education is key ft. Kate McMahon and Lisa Purves | Online Safety in Sport Series

    In this second episode of our Online Safety in Sport podcast series, we explore why education is one of the most powerful tools we have to prevent online harm in sport. From social media abuse to harmful online behaviours that spill into real-world environments, the impacts are growing – but so are the opportunities to respond. Online harm isn’t inevitable. With the right education, shared responsibility and early action, sport can remain a safe, respectful space.   Our On Side host Tim Gavel is joined by two leaders working at the forefront of safeguarding and integrity in Australian sport: Kate McMahon, National Integrity Manager at Surfing Australia, who brings a unique perspective shaped by her background in media, storytelling and a lifelong connection to the surfing community. Lisa Purves, Director of Safeguarding at Sport Integrity Australia, who leads national efforts to strengthen child safety and help organisations prevent and respond to harm, including in online spaces. Together, they unpack: Why online safety is such a critical issue for sport right now The real impact of online abuse on athletes, participation and wellbeing Why online harm isn’t separate from sport – but part of the broader culture How education empowers athletes, coaches, parents and organisations to take action The role everyone plays in building safe, respectful online environments.

    Clean or contaminated: the truth about sports supplements

    While the sport supplement market might be thriving, the use of supplements can destroy an athlete’s career.  Supplement manufacturers often use omissions or alternative names to lure buyers in and create the illusion of a clean substance. When in fact many contain substances that are prohibited in sport.  A recent research collaboration between Sport Integrity Australia and Human and Supplement Testing Australia (HASTA) found that of 200 supplement products tested, 35 per cent contained one or more WADA Prohibited Substances.  In addition to this, 57 per cent of the products that tested positive did not list the prohibited ingredients on their packaging or website.  In this episode our host Tim Gavel speaks to a panel of guests about the research results, risks around use of supplements and how this can lead to unintentional doping.

    From positive test to positive influence: meet Cassie Fien

    Our Athlete Advisory Group (AAG) plays a vital role informing the strategic direction and shaping education strategies of the agency. Through their collective lived experience, they provide insights into the pressures and influences that can threaten the integrity of sport, and how we can better assist athletes to be clean, safe and fair in sport.  Marathon runner Cassie Fien was a member of our AAG for more than four years. With her final term recently coming to an end, we had a chat with Cassie about her role on the AAG, in particular, the lived experience she was able to share as a sanctioned athlete.

    Collaboration the key to combatting drugs in sport (ft. WADA & ORADO members)

    How do we stop or curb the use of Performance and Image Enhancing drugs in sport? In the fight to keep sport clean, safe and fair, shutting down illicit drug production and distribution has become a task that requires a multidisciplinary approach. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is pushing national anti-doping agencies and law enforcement to collaborate to prevent and respond to integrity threats in sport. WADA has expanded its Intelligence and Investigations Capability and Capacity Building Project, into Asia and Oceania, following the success of a similar program in Europe. The first of six workshops was held in Australia this month, with representatives from 10 countries in attendance. With the 2032 Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games touted as the Pacific Games, we speak with Chair of the Oceania Regional Anti-Doping Organization, Dr Lawrence Teariki Puni, along with WADA Investigator, John McLaughlin, about the importance of collaboration in combatting drugs in sport.
