Good Sports and your club

Good Sports is a FREE program of the Australian Drug Foundation (ADF) with 6000+ clubs already involved Australia-wide. The program is designed to increase knowledge and skills around alcohol management for community sporting clubs, and is an important resource to help clubs minimise risk, be more aware of duty of care obligations and better understand liquor licencing obligations. Clubs don’t need to have alcohol issues or even a liquor licence to become involved, and Good Sports helps clubs positively promote the good things they are already doing.

New General Code or Practice & upcoming Liquor Licensing forum

The introduction of the New General Code of Practice in 2013 has meant some significant Liquor Licensing changes for licensed venues in SA. Good Sports has been working closely with local sporting clubs and Consumer & Business Services to help clubs reduce risk and ensure compliance. Attending this Liquor Licensing forum is a fantastic opportunity for your club to hear first-hand about these changes, how they impact your club, how Good Sports can assist, and ask those burning licensing questions directly with a liquor licensing inspector.

Becoming a Good Sports club provides sporting clubs with many benefits

• Good Sports is FREE, and provides a range of best practice policy templates & risk management strategies
• Compliance with Step 25 of the STARCLUB club development program (ORS)
• Access to subsidised RSA training options to ensure clubs comply with the new general code of practice
• Strengthen fundraising and grants applications (e.g. Good Sports increasingly included in council, sport and rec grants)
• Better understanding of liquor licensing law and duty of care, with access to best practice strategies, policies and resources
• Enhanced family friendly atmosphere, increased membership, attendance & volunteer retention

Please register ASAP to ensure your club/association is represented at this not-to-be-missed forum
