Junior Member Welcome Pack     

 



On behalf of Benfleet Juniors Running Club I would like to welcome your child to the club and provide you with some information about our activities.  


The club provides opportunities for young people between the ages of 8 and 14 years of age to receive coaching and compete in Road Running, Cross Country and Trail athletics competitions.  The Junior Club is now enrolled in the Norwich Union Shine:awards and will be focusing heavily on the children’s involvement in this National Scheme to hopefully gain their certificates and medals and have fun !

All coaching is by qualified coaches who are trained and have been screened for their suitability for working with young people, and have clearance through the Criminal Records Bureau Enhanced Disclosure policy.

The club is applying for Sport England's Clubmark, which is awarded to clubs by National Governing Bodies (NGB) when the club is able to demonstrate that it meets the NGBs criteria as to playing programme; safeguarding and protecting children; sports equity and ethics and club management. Clubmark is an acknowledgement that we take these issues seriously and that we are striving to provide a high quality and welcoming environment for young participants in the sport. Our club Junior Co-ordinator, is responsible for ensuring that our child protection policy is implemented and can be contacted should you have any concerns.

 

As you can imagine this involves a lot of paperwork, and policies that we need to adhere to, and you need to read and sign policies relevant to you as a parent / carer and also your junior member needs to read, understand and sign.

 

We welcome parents to all training and competitions and value your support. We are keen to try and involve parents in the club. Below is some information about training times and dates, and details regarding travel arrangements.
