Sports and Recreation Policy Collection
Below are links to policies addressing alcohol availability and use at various sports settings and for some recreation associations. We suggest that you browse through these links and utilize the information and templates presented in developing a policy that meets your organization's unique needs.
We continue to accumulate publications and references from a broad range of sources, but would also love to hear from you! If your organization has recently written or updated a policy, sat on a committee which was formulating a policy, or just came across one in your Internet browsing, we encourage you to send it to us so that we can share it with other groups. Please send to contributions@apolnet.ca with "Sample Alcohol Policy" in the subject line.
