PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 WILL NOT BE PAID OUT ANY PRIZE MONEY
At any Caversham venue, staff with reasonable grounds to suspect that a person is under the age of 18, will refuse to pay out any money won by that person.
If any money is withheld, the venue staff will keep a record of the name, address of the person concerned, the amount of money won, the date on which the money was won and withheld; and advise that person that if they can provide satisfactory verification of their age within 7 days, the person will be paid the money withheld.
Any money not claimed in 7 days will be treated as net proceeds of gambling at this Caversham venue.
Under age gambling may indicate a potential problem gaming issue.
If you are concerned about your gaming please contact Woodlands Charitable Trust for free information and advice or read the problem gaming brochures available at this Caversham venue.
