Off' contains brief and relevant educational material, news articles, health facts & information
relating to those involved in Rugby League, such as concussion, retirement, drugs & alcohol, behaviour
and the latest news & views. It also provides contact details along with our various
programs & service structure.

anyone who wishes to subscribe. Simply fill out the subscription form and you will
receive your copy each month. For clubs who have engaged our service, copies will be provided to
all players, coaching & conditioning staff, administrators etc., automatically.
Mental Health issues cannot be highlighted only
when something 'major' happens or when there is a specific 'day' or 'week'
or 'month' set aside for its' exposure. It needs to be constantly promoted with increased
frequent focus on raising awareness of Mental Health & 'ill-health'. The 'Kick Off'
Newsletter is part of this aim.
The Newsletter is also available 'on-line'
for perusal and we anticipate a 'downloading' option in the near future.

as:

Below is a copy of our
very first newsletter (Andrew Johns - 'a lesson to be learned') Volume 1,
Issue 1. (September, 2007) As you can see, it is brief in contents, allowing for ease of use. It
serves as a useful reminder however of 'Kick Off''s functions and how we might be contacted and
how we operate.
