The New Saints FC Partner with GAMSTOP for Self-Exclusion Day

16-time JD Cymru Premier champions, The New Saints FC, teamed up with GAMSTOP, the UK’s national online self-exclusion scheme, in support of Self-Exclusion Day on Saturday 14th September.
The New Saints donated their match-day sponsorship slot to GAMSTOP for their 4-0 JD Cymru Premier victory over Barry Town, which saw the club promote the initiative across its matchday programme and social media platforms. The club’s players wore dedicated custom made GAMSTOP warm-up shirts ahead of the fixture, to raise awareness for the vital campaign designed to highlight the power of self-exclusion.
Beyond the fixture, GAMSTOP, in partnership with Addiction Recovery Agency (ARA), are set to deliver essential training sessions to The New Saints Academy, educating young athletes on the risks of gambling, how to spot and support problem gamblers and how they can support their mental and financial well-being through self-exclusion tools.
The New Saints are proud to play a crucial role in spreading awareness about the importance of GAMSTOP’s work, encouraging both fans and the wider public to engage with the responsible gambling message and to make use of GAMSTOP’s services if they or someone they know is struggling. This year’s Self-Exclusion Day campaign was dubbed #TakeBackControl2024.
GAMSTOP CEO Fiona Palmer said: “The level of support The New Saints provided for Self-Exclusion Day has been above and beyond. Football clubs play a key role in shaping their communities, and it’s fantastic to see TNS take such a proactive stance in supporting individuals who may be struggling with gambling harm. Together, we can ensure that support is available for those who need it.â€
Chris Sergeant, Head of Academy at The New Saints FC, added: “We’re delighted to work with GAMSTOP and use the power of football to raise awareness about the importance of responsible gambling. As a club, we are always looking for ways to support our players, fans, and the wider community. This partnership is a crucial step in continuing that mission.â€
Clubs from all four English leagues, including Premier League clubs such as Crystal Palace, also joined TNS in marking Self-Exclusion Day with many donating programme advertising and posting on their social media. GAMSTOP is a free service which allows vulnerable consumers to exclude themselves from all gambling sites licensed by the Gambling Commission for up to five years, with shorter options of six months or a year. They recently surpassed 500,000 sign ups to their service.
