Sports Off Shore recognises that for a small group of people, gaming may be a problem which adversely affects their personal lives and the lives of those closest to them. What for the vast majority of participants is an enjoyable leisure and social activity, can for a small percentage of the population become a problematic behaviour. Similarly, shopping, alcohol, eating, and physical exercise are a few examples of otherwise normal activities which if unmanaged, abused or used as a mechanism to escape everyday problems can become problematic. We at SOS believe that we have a responsibility as the provider of gaming products to promote responsible gaming and ensure the delivery of gaming services in a socially responsible environment.
You must be 18 In an effort to prevent underage individuals from gaining access to the gaming products offered by Sports Off Shore we are registered at the following parental control filtering engines:

Know your limits Managing your bankroll responsibly is the best way to enjoy wagering without getting in over your head. To help our players keep track of their bankrolls we offer various options for setting spending limits, opting-out of certain wagering products (i.e. Casino etc.), or even blocking themselves entirely from all wagering at Sports Off Shore. For more information on how we can help you manage your bankroll you can email us at info@playlegal.com
Self-awareness If you are unsure about whether or not you have a gambling problem and would like to test yourself, the Financial Services Regulatory Commission of Antigua and Barbuda has a self-assessment test available on its website at http://www.antiguagaming.gov.ag/self_awareness.asp

Working Together SOS is a proud member of the Antiguan Online Gaming Association (AOGA), an industry group committed to maintaining a responsible gaming sector here in Antigua and Barbuda. We are working closely with the Antiguan government and the Financial Services Regulator Commission (FSRC) to ensure that Antigua continues to meet and exceed international standards of best practice in regards to responsible gaming.
In support of this, the AOGA, in conjunction with the FSRC, has established a ‘Gaming Addiction Research and Education Fund’ to help in educating the public on the risks associated with gaming, increase social awareness, particularly with minors, and provide resources for the treatment of problem gambling. The AOGA is united with The Commission on the importance of these measures.
