Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA) helps control the negative impact that alcohol has on our community. RSA has been part of the NSW Liquor Laws for more than 100 years.

RSA currently deals with:

Minor accessing restricted areas

Alcohol-related violence and crime

Drunk and disorderly patrons

Noise disturbance

To comply with RSA laws, licensees and venue staff must:​

Recognise the signs of impending intoxication

Not serve anyone who shows these signs

Not serve anyone who arrives already intoxicated

Understand the principles of ‘standard drinks’ and drink driving levels

Discourage patrons from actions that can harm themselves or others

Understand the impact of alcohol on our community

Bankstown Sports takes problem gambling seriously and has always been proactive in this regard, promoting Gambling Help services throughout the club and online. 

Voluntary pre-commitment allows individuals to gamble within their means. If they are concerned about their gambling, they can set a limit for themselves on their member card before they play the gaming machines. Once the pre-determined limit is reached, the player will be alerted by the player console and a message sent to the manager who will attend to the machine to determine the necessary action required.

The scheme gives the player the ability to keep track of their daily, weekly and monthly gaming spend and there are options available, such as: exclusion from gaming promotions for 24 hours once a pre-set limit has been reached; cooling off periods for increasing limits and real-time implementation of reduced limits at the player’s request.

To participate in voluntary pre-commitment, please see one of our Operational Support Managers or Venue Managers and they will assist.

If you want to talk to someone who can help with information, counselling and referral, call Gambling Help 1800 858 858. Gambling Help Line counsellors are available at any time, 24 hours a day.
