Scenes from the Activity

FIP2026

In this study, building on the anti-doping education we have been conducting as sports pharmacists, we developed an educational program on the proper use of medicines for children that leverages the value of sports.

In January 2026, we conducted a 90-minute educational program—combining lectures, medicine experiments, and card games—for approximately 150 students at two local elementary schools on the island of Bali, Indonesia. We conducted pre- and post-program evaluations to assess the learning outcomes.

This initiative was carried out as a selected project under Phase II of the Reiwa 7 SFTC Member Project Support Program “SFT Action+ (Plus),” in collaboration with the Faculty of Pharmacy at Shizuoka Prefectural University, Osaka Sangyo University, and schools and local stakeholders in Indonesia.

SFTC (Sport for Tomorrow Consortium) is a public-private network that promotes international exchange and cooperation through sports.

■ “Doping Guardian” Card Game

“Doping Guardian” is a card game educational tool developed by Midoriya Pharmacy LLC for anti-doping education. Originally developed for professional athletes, it allows players to simulate decision-making scenarios involving the use of medications and supplements, thereby learning about the risks of inadvertent doping and medication-related issues.Currently, it is used not only for anti-doping education for athletes but also in medication safety classes for children.

In this program, we also utilized “Doping Yokai”—an educational tool that personifies the categories on the Prohibited List—to convey the concepts of anti-doping and the proper use of medications to children in a visually engaging and easy-to-understand manner.
