Experts will lead a discussion on: • The health and performance risks associated with gambling and sports betting. • Strategies to educate student-athletes and staff about betting-related dangers. • Reducing stigma around help-seeking for problem gambling to encourage early intervention. • Applying NCAA Mental Health Best Practices in the context of sports betting.
