Recommended Safeguarding Guidelines- Travel, Trips and Tournaments

Recommended Guidelines

Travelling to away games and having trips away from
home should be both safe and fun for children (which
includes all those aged under 18). It should be a chance
for all children to grow in confidence, self-esteem,
and skills.

Parents and carers will often worry when their children
are away but careful planning and preparation should
help to ease those worries and demonstrate that you
have taken into account the various needs of their
children and the potential dangers of a trip away.

To help you organise trips and travelling the following
Safeguarding Children Guidelines have been developed.

Much of this preparation can be done at the start of
the season when you register members at your club.
For regular away trips you will find that very little needs
to change from week to week, although if you have a
new team member or helper with additional needs or a
different cultural background you may need to consider
your planning again.
