End of Season Celebrations
Mad Monday?
End of Season Trip?
Has your club fully considered the risks and potential implications?
The practise of sporting clubs celebrating their end of season with a trip away or ‘Mad Monday’ type event appear to be becoming more commonplace.
Players looking for another excuse to ‘party’ and unwind post season and the exposure of elite team’s activities, have been put forward as explanations for this apparent trend. Whatever the reasons, many clubs do not know how to deal with the health and legal risks posed by such events.
