Safeguarding and child protection policy

Sporting Activities for Children

Child abuse is any form of physical, emotional or sexual mistreatment, or neglect by act or omission that leads to injury or harm to the child. Harm clould be unintentional – it is not alsways deliberate.
Injury resulting from abuse differs from that which occurs in the context of sport because most sports injuries
are accidental or the result of momentary lack of care.

Child abuse encompasses a range of deliberate conduct or failure of a person charged with the care of child to act in the proper interests of the welfare of that child.
Tottenham Hotspur takes all reasonable steps to ensure that children engaged in its activities do so in a safe environment and are safeguarded form abuse. Personnel are trained to take heed of children and deal with appropriate agencies where children appaer to be at risk in their lives outside the club.
