DO Details

Join us for the End Alcohol Advertising in Sport national campaign launch, meet the sporting legends who have joined our ranks, and help us better protect Aussie kids by removing alcohol brands from Australia’s favourite sports.

"We have no greater responsibility than the raising of our children and giving them the right values and the right habits with regard to their health.”

Millions of Australian children and families watch the AFL, NRL, and cricket; sports which are saturated with alcohol advertising. So much so that it’s becoming impossible to know where the game ends and the alcohol marketing begins.

All the evidence shows that exposure to alcohol advertising is associated with young people drinking more and from an earlier age. And that’s why we’re calling for an end to alcohol advertising in sport.

The End Alcohol Advertising in Sport national campaign launch will reveal how Australians can encourage governments to assist offending codes to break their addiction of alcohol industry dollars, inspire and ignite change across all professional sporting codes; and build a better future for our kids.

Light refreshments will be provided.

Who should attend? People who are passionate about protecting children, and who wish to ensure sport delivers the right values and the right habits for our children.
