During a game against the Western Bulldogs, the Cats prohibited all gambling promotions from their home stadium, Kardinia Park. <\/p>\n<p>The Cats are just one of over 500 athletic organizations in Victoria that have rejected sports betting sponsorships.  They are especially worried about the influence of gambling marketing on youth.  All ten AFL clubs in Victoria are aligned in this position.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for this worry is clear. Almost one-third of all sports bets in Victoria are made by males between 18 and 24 years old.  Considering the amount of exposure millennials and Generation Z have to sports betting advertisements, it&#8217;s unsurprising that so many young individuals are becoming entangled in gambling.<\/p>\n<p>A 2020 study revealed that 88% of Victorian sports enthusiasts think young people are subjected to excessive sports betting marketing.  The funds allocated to gambling advertising in Australia have surged in recent times, increasing from $89.7 million in 2011 to an astounding $2.32 billion in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Bryce Cox, Geelong\u2019s chief commercial officer, stated: \u201cIt\u2019s crucial for our organization to be free from gambling and gaming, and we take pride in our stadium being free of any sports betting advertisements.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The Geelong Football Club is a proud supporter of the &#8220;Love the Game&#8221; program, an initiative created by the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation.  The club has chosen to oppose sports betting sponsorships to reduce the volume of gambling promotions seen by supporters, particularly youth.  They aim to cultivate an authentic passion for the sport, inspiring young enthusiasts to appreciate the excitement of the game itself, instead of perceiving it through a wagering perspective. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Geelong Football Club, an Australian Rules Football team, has pledged their support to a program called &#8220;Love the Game&#8221; organized by the Victorian Responsible [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v22.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Geelong Cats Tackle Gambling: AFL Team Supports<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Geelong Football Club takes a stand against sports betting, partnering with the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Geelong Cats Tackle Sports Betting, Championing Love of the Game Over Gambling\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Geelong Football Club takes a stand against sports betting, partnering with the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Your Premier Choice for Licensed Online Casino Entertainment\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-06-16T21:16:01+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-06-20T14:11:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mason &quot;Mercury&quot; Haynes\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mason &quot;Mercury&quot; Haynes\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/\",\"name\":\"Geelong Cats Tackle Gambling: AFL Team Supports\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-06-16T21:16:01+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-20T14:11:35+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#\/schema\/person\/1c431b0e75105a0b2ce30c67d325ad0e\"},\"description\":\"The Geelong Football Club takes a stand against sports betting, partnering with the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/2024\/06\/17\/geelong-cats-tackle-sports-betting-championing-love-of-the-game-over-gambling\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Homepage\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Geelong Cats Tackle Sports Betting, Championing Love of the Game Over Gambling\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/goldenladycasinonodepositbonus.icu\/\",\"name\":\"Your Premier Choice for Licensed Online Casino Entertainment\",\"description\":\"Stay on top of the online gambling world through our fresh casino news, in-depth game reviews, and informative insights.
