The method we used in the study was aquantitative survey report. Two teams participated in the survey, one team from the fifth divisionand one from the second division. The respondents (n=34) are born between 1977 and 1996. The results turned out to be very interesting because it both confirm and denies our hypothesis that players in higher divisions use less tobacco and alcohol than players in lower divisions. For example we found out that 21 % of division two players use snus regularly compared with only 10 % of division five players. We have also examined alcohol habits in both a general way and also compared those habits between the divisions, and we have also investigated how and if alcohol is consumed during parties that are held at the season finales.
