Problem Gambling - ‘Here for the Game’

Uniting Country SA (UCSA) supports The Department of Human Services – Office of Problem Gambling in launching an innovative campaign called ‘Here for the Game’ with the aim of disrupting the normalsing of Sports Betting.

Betting on sports games can quickly become a problem leading to unsafe outcomes for families and the community.

It's time to start conversations about sports betting. Calling out the risks of sports betting, educating communities and saying no to sports betting are all strategies to raise the profile of this issue.

USCA offers Gambling Help Service across the Yorke and Mid north, Eyre & Western and Far North of South Australia and can be contacted via 1300 067 777. Here for the game | Here for the game
