Sandringham Anglers Club
JOINS GOOD SPORTS PROGRAM 12 July 2O11Sports 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 Sandringham
Anglers Club has elected to participate in the Australian Drug Foundation's Good Sports
program.
The program is run in Victoria by the Australian Drug Foundation in conjunction with
VicHealth, 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
promote a healthy and welcoming club culture whilst working to consistently meet our duty
care obligations in regards to alcohol consumption.
To become Good Sports Level I accredited we will address a number of criteria including having
Responsible Serving of Alcohol trained bar staff and our facilities will be smoke free.
