South Croydon Football Club
JOINS NEW PROGRAM
Date: 10/02/2010
Sports clubs such as ours play a significant role in the community and therefore have a responsibility
to our members and their families. In recognition of this, the South Croydon Football Club has elected to participate
in the Good Sports program.
The program is run in Victoria by the Australian Drug Foundation in conjunction with VicHealth,
the Traffic Accident Commission (TAC), Department of Health (Vic) and the Department of Health and Ageing.
The program has been designed to assist clubs with the responsible management of alcohol and is the only nationwide
program of its kind.
As a community based club we believe involvement in this program is a way for our club to promote a healthy and
welcoming club culture whilst working to consistently meet our duty of care obligations in regards to alcohol consumption.
To become Good Sports Level One accredited we will address a number of criteria including having Responsible Service
Alcohol trained bar staff and implementing a Smoke-Free policy.
For more information about Good Sports speak to members of your committee.
