Help and advice from the Child Protection in Sport Unit

Parents can play an important role in making sports safe and enjoyable for all children.

Here are some ways you can help:

encourage your child's club to develop safeguarding policies and guidelines
check to make sure that the guidelines are being put into practice
find out who the child protection/wefare officer is and support them in their work
get involved as a volunteer
go along to support your child's involvement in training, matches or competitions
if you are actively involved in the club, make sure your behaviour sets the right example. See Setting the right example.
