Top Spin competition gets you thinking about how 'sneaky' advertising encourages drinking
We're teaming up with VicHealth to promote the 2019 Top Spin competition.
What's Top Spin? Well it's a chance for you to win $1000 in a statewide competition but you're going to have to do a bit of investigation first.
You see Top Spin is all about getting you and all other young Victorians to 'call out' the sneaky tactics used to influence you to drink.
Have you noticed there's more delivery options being advertised these days? Here are some of the tricks Top Spin say are being used to encourage young Victorians to drink.
- Photographs from festivals or clubs used by alcohol companies to promote their brands on social media without the permission of people appearing in them.
- Alcohol advertising on sporting fields.
- Alcohol companies using ads and influencers to slide into your Instagram feed.

Top Spin recognises young people are pretty clued in to what's happening and want you to call this behaviour out.
The competition will run from April 9 to May 12 and is open to all young Victorians aged between 18 and 29 years.
