Working with Vulnerable People Cards

We take safety at the club seriously – so, a timely reminder about keeping your working with vulnerable people cards with you when you come to the club days. If you don’t have one yet, then the application fee is waived for voluntary clubs. Please get one as we have been advised that the club can be subject to spot checks and fines if they are not available, so also check the expiry date on yours if you have one.

Registration

Please make sure that your child or children are registered for this season – it really does matter. It is vital for our insurance coverage that all athletes are registered and paid up for the season. The only exception applies to athletes who are trying out athletics for a week or two for the first time (who need to be registered, but have a short grace period to pay).
