Following discussions between the Welfare and Protection Officer, Secretary and the County Board it has been decided that those who are to only play this coming season and will not hold a specific management role at either senior or junior level need not apply for the enhanced CRB check.

It has come to pass that applying for the check based on the position being applied for being ‘player’ will not be accepted at the CRB and will thus lead to rejected paperwork. The Club does not wish to waste the time of it’s members or the verifiers who sign off the application before it is sent to the CRB. Therefore the application process for those who fall into this category needs to be stopped from now.

All those who do hold a specific mangement role (captains, managers, coaches etc) need to apply, complete, attend a verification interview and return the form as the system demands.

The Management Committee will debate this matter fully when it meets on Wednesday 8th April and the Welfare and Protection Officer will speak on Good Friday. If you have any queries on this matter please contact either the Welfare and Protection Officer or the Secretary in the first instance.
