	QE5: Chapter 7
		Football supporters aged between 10 and 16 years were recruited by two methods: a mail-out to VFL Football Club members and an intercept survey at six VFL football grounds.
		The finding that respondents with a high level of interest in VFL football were less likely to intend to smoke in future suggests that an interest in sports may be a predictor of the future uptake of smoking.
		It is reassuring though that VFL footballers, when compared to people in their 20s, were perceived to be less likely to participate in habits such as smoking, eating junk food, drinking and driving, or drinking alcohol at parties.
