JOIN THE WFNL IN LOVING THE GAME, NOT THE ODDS, THIS MAY

The Western Football Netball League is committed to raising awareness about the risks of sports betting and protecting young people from the potential harms of gambling. We firmly believe that sport is about the passion, the teamwork, the growth, and the pure enjoyment of the game, not the odds.

That’s why we’re inviting all WFNL clubs to host a Love the Game round this May. This is a fantastic opportunity for your club to stand alongside the WFNL in promoting a healthy, gambling-free environment for your players, supporters, and the wider community.

Why Host a Love the Game Round?

Sports betting is a rapidly expanding part of the gambling industry, fuelled by increased advertising during broadcasts and easy access through online platforms.

This normalises betting within the sporting experience, particularly for young people. The Love the Game program directly tackles this issue by empowering clubs and communities to champion the true spirit of sport.

By hosting a Love the Game Round, your club can:

• Show your community that your club prioritises the love of the game over betting.
• Raise awareness about the risks associated with sports betting, especially among young people.
• Demonstrate your club’s commitment to a gambling-free environment.
• Help shape healthy attitudes towards gambling in young players and spectators.
• Get Involved and Be Rewarded.

By hosting a Love the Game Round and registering your event, your club could be rewarded with:

• Sporting equipment vouchers to help your teams.
• Exclusive experiences for your members.
• Coaching whiteboards to enhance your training sessions.

It’s easy to get started! Simply register your club’s Love the Game round at the official Love the Game website HERE.
