Rehab News:English cricket to tackle alcohol abuse

A new campaign has been launched to help combat the problems associated with alcohol abuse and gambling among cricketers, it has been revealed.

The Professional Cricketers Association (PCA) has set up an addictive behaviour programme with the backing of the England and Wales Cricket Board, which will provide all first XI coaches with a video on addiction.

The video will include advice from former cricketers who recovered from addictions, as well as actors who have been brought in to play the part of cricketers suffering from alcoholism or other forms of addiction.

Jason Ratcliffe, former cricketer and director of the PCA, told BBC Sport that the sport has "a history of people getting into trouble".

Ratcliffe explained that one of the messages that the video wants to get across is that fellow team members may be suffering from alcoholism or drug addiction without anyone realising, or a player might not recognise that they themselves have a problem.

"You might not know what's going on and the programme might educate you to see these instances and judge whether you might have a problem and what to do about it.

"Hopefully if someone's worrying about a colleague they will know what to do about it and hopefully we will nip the problem in the bud," he said.

The campaign has been welcomed by Peter Kay, a spokesman for counselling charity Sporting Chance.

"The characteristics that you need to get to the top in sport - a tunnel-like vision, commitment and focus - are the same that you would find in an addict," Mr Kay told the BBC.

"When people get bored, people who are primarily athletes who get a buzz from sport, if they don't get that a whole lot of other things do fill that gap. That's the way they will have problems with addictions."
