Rehab News:Match days present opportunities for alcohol abuse

Days when popular sporting events take place tend to fuel alcohol consumption at a similar level to celebration days such as New Year's Eve, researchers have found.

A study by addiction experts at the University of Texas at Austin followed the activities of students during the 2004/05 and 2005/06 football seasons at the university.

Publishing their findings in the journal Addictive Behaviours, the researchers revealed that students were particularly likely to drink during high-profile games.

Study author and psychologist Dr Kim Fromme, director of the university's Studies on Alcohol, Health and Risky Activities Laboratory, commented: "Most events associated with heavy drinking occur only once a year, such as spring break, or once in a lifetime, such as a 21st birthday, but the weekly football schedule presents students with more regular opportunities to drink."

The study also revealed that binge-drinking only tended to occur if the game was taking place on campus.

Dr Fromme added: "These results indicate drinking is connected not only to the game itself, but to the social context associated with the event."
