# Rugby: The South African Institute for Drug-free Sport says the likelihood of the use of banned substances increases because the stakes are so high. This follows after two young props, Kai Pratt and Deon Botes, recently tested positive for anabolic steroids. Botes was banned for four years, while Pratt requested that his B sample be tested. The institute’s CEO, Khalid Galant, says the popularity and television coverage of schoolboy rugby put increased pressure on young players wanting to make a career out of the game.
