Drugs 'out of our range', say netballers Australian netballers claim their sport is clean from illicit drugs. AUSTRALIAN netballers have laughed off suggestions of drugs in their sport, suggesting that with some on as little as $12,000 a year they are flat out paying for food. The players, who asked not to be named, said they relied on hard work, healthy eating and good support in the semi-professional ANZ trans-Tasman Championship. Netball Queensland chief executive Anna Carroll (pictured) yesterday said the sport was clean. "All of us have a responsibility to play within the rules," she said. We take very seriously the commitments that we make and we've made conscious decisions about where we will take our money. Five-time Olympic beach volleyballer and gold medallist Natalie Cook said she could not even imagine anyone using performance enhancers in her sport.
