  • Week9 E-Record .Indd
    E-Footy RECORD 31st May 2008 Issue 9 Editorial with Marty King AFL AND AFLPA SET TO MOVE ON NEW ALCOHOL POLICY It’s terrifi c to see the AFL and the AFL Players Association working collaboratively to formulate a new policy on responsible alcohol consumption in the football environment. They are seeking feedback from each of the 16 AFL clubs, together with key national drug and alcohol experts, before framing a policy with guidelines that all AFL clubs and associated bod- ies like AFL Queensland can use to develop their own. This comes after a lot of background work was done over almost two years and the AFL Com- mission received a full briefi ng. The AFL, the Players’ Association and the AFL clubs understand that quite clearly that they have a responsibility to promote responsible drinking within the AFL and among the 16 clubs, the players and staff. But it’s not just about the elite level. The same will apply at the grassroots level and we at AFLQ will look to partner with the League on this important initiative. The guidelines within the AFL Framing Policy will provide a framework for AFL clubs and asso- ciated bodies to assist them in developing their own individual club responsible alcohol policies. The AFL Framing Policy lists a set of objectives for players and club staff, including the devel- opment of approaches for responsible consumption, effective pathways for treatment of alco- hol-related problems, creating responsible drinking cultures and using player welfare oriented and education-based approaches to promote responsible alcohol consumption.

To use another overblown metaphor, clubs are also the essential fabric out of which the rich, variegated tapestry of the game’s history has been woven.

From 7.30 with a few games to keep the night entertaining! CATS OF 2014 Check out our website or facebook page www.neerimneerimsouthfc.vcfl.com.au or ‘Like’ on facebook: Neerim South Cats PRESIDENT’S REPORT Glenn Flowers A warm welcome to The Longwarry footy and netball club today. At half time in the seniors today I would like to welcome all of ours and Longwarry’s life members, committee and workers for afternoon tea. I would also like to welcome everyone to stay back and have a drink after the game. Last week against Poowong in atrocious conditions we weren't good enough to get over the line and a win against one of the top 3 sides on the way home is imperative to our chance of playing finals footy. The same can be said about the second's who really struggled for any cohesion last week and were totally outplayed by Poowong. The junior boys continue to impress with the U18's having great success so far. We have to pick ourselves up and be positive and really challenge the Crows today. The netballers will also be desperate for wins today to keep any hope alive of contending in the finals series. Our Cat Draw 2 weeks ago was a great success for the club and all who partaked in the evening. A big thank you goes out to the coordinator’s of this event in Bec Ladds, Nicole, Harry and Hummers who did a great job of bringing it all together and thanks also to Kim Fawcett who did a great job of selling the tickets in which only 4 were left over and Andy Smith who did the music on the night.
