Belmont Softball Club

We are Good Sports

As a Good Sport club we work to manage alcohol responsibly. Did you know alcohol can affect sporting performance and recovery? http://goodsports.com.au/resources/articles/alcohol-a-performance-impairing-drug/#read

We are a Good sports Level 2 accredited club.

Sporting clubs such as ours play a significant role in the communit and have a responsibility to our members and their families. We have chosen to join over 6,500 clubs across Australia taking part in the Australian Drug Foundation's Good Sports program. Through Good Sports we are committed to managing alcohol responsibly and ensuring smoke free areas, which we believe will help us to provide a healthy, safe and family friendly environment.

Through Good Sports we aim to:

Eliminate risky drinking in the club through the promotion of a responsible approach to the sale and consumption of alcohol in the club.
Protect juniors and other young people from the misuse of alcohol in and around the club.
Provide a responsible smoke-free club environment, through designated smoking areas.

At Level 2, we are committed to:

Not selling or consuming alcohol without an appropriate liquor license.
training our bar staff in Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA).
Responsibly managing smoke free areas in line with our requirements.

If there is a possibility of Seniors playing a message will be sent prior to 11:00am advising whether seniors are also cancelled.

The NDSA Facebook page may also be updated if possible but the primary communication will be via text. If no text is received please assume games are being played.
