Racetracks
Racetracks provide a live sports environment with options to place bets, participate in 'the Tote' or enjoy corporate hospitality and bars
Individual racetrack licences can place age restrictions on access to certain areas, require age restricted enclosures and provider for age verification to take place at the point of bet or the collection of winnings.
How can the Age Check Certification Scheme help racetracks?
We test that age check systems work. We do this through audits, test purchasing and mystery shopping. We can visit racetracks attempting to enter age restricted enclosures, place bets or buy alcohol. We can provide the industry standard signage for all parts of the track and provide specialised training for full time and casual racetrack staff.
Why do I have to get this done?
Racetracks will be subject to local licensing and planning restrictions which are likely to place strict obligations on both track owners and the individual businesses operating at the track to take steps to prevent the underage gambling or consumption of alcohol. The penalties for failing to comply can be substantial including the forced closure of the racetrack.
What posters and materials do I need to be compliant?
You may be required to display certain posters or warnings in relation to access to gambling services or the purchase and consumption of alcohol at the track. Our shop has all of the materials, posters, badges, signs and policies that you need to comply with local laws.
What training do I need for our staff?
