Matches |
|
The County welcomes the involvement
of Under 18's (juniors) in County games, but it is essential that the safety of
these juniors shall be paramount, both whilst travelling to and from a match and
whilst at a match. |
|
The following rules are intended to
protect them and not inhibit them. |
|
The County welcomes the involvement
of the young player's parents, and by coming along and supporting them;
their well-being is assured and the adults will have a better
appreciation of their child's involvement in the team. |
|
The junior's parent or guardian
must countersign any County representative team acceptance reply slip. |
| |
| Travel
Arrangements |
|
It is the responsibility of each
member of any of the County teams to arrange their own transport to home
or away fixtures. This may involve asking another member of the
team etc. Before returning the ' I can/I cannot play ' slip, the players
must ensure they have transport to the match. |
|
Additional special rules apply
regarding the transport of players under the age of 18 years where
transport is arranged by any County representative and are advised where
parents make their own private arrangements. |
|
If the person in the car is the
parent of the child, there is no problem - if not:
|
| |
|
1 |
There must be at least two adults in the car |
|
2 |
at least one of the adults
must have CRB clearance under the Childrens’ Protection Act and the
County has a record of the disclosure number given by the CRB. |
|
| |
|
|
| At
the venue |
|
At the match, it should be the
responsibility of all team members to look after the junior players, but,
additionally, a nominated person with CRB clearance, shall take responsibility
for any junior's behaviour, well-being and safety, unless they are in the
charge of their parent or guardian. |
