  • Safeguarding children

    We seek to help protect and promote the welfare of all young people in Rounders by having in place clear policies and guidance for safeguarding children.

  • Safeguarding Adults

    With support from the Ann Craft Trust (ACT), we have created a Safeguarding Adults policy and procedure. The policy applies to all adults, 18 years or older, involved in Rounders.

  • Welfare Officer Guidance

    Welfare Officers play a key role. By designating someone to this role, we have a first point of contact for safeguarding concerns.

  • Safeguarding resources

    We have provided lots of useful downloadable resources to support teams and leagues with regards to Safeguarding.

  • Training & Courses

    The NSPCC Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) and UK Coaching have developed courses that are available to our Welfare Officers and Workforce.
