Hear from our Good Sports clubs
Find out how Good Sports supports thousands of clubs to reduce alcohol and other drug harm in their communities.
Players and supporters at the club are much happier, safer and healthier from the Good Sports experience. The club has changed from one which was viewed by locals and other teams as almost a lost cause [because of drinking and smoking], to becoming one which takes pride in its family-friendly atmosphere and respect for fellow players, other teams and the spirit of cricket.
