• The manager/coach and physio are encouraged to complete the free online Safeguarding Children and Player Welfare courses via the FA Bootroom which can be found at: https://thebootroom.thefa.com/learning/qualifications/safeguarding-courses
• The club has a laid down Safeguarding Policy and that it is followed within the Club.
• Their 16/17 year old players are handed the ‘Know your rights leaflet’
• Young players are safeguarded during matches and training sessions and team officials to understand they are still minors – see guidance document attached.
