The club has a open policy to anyone
from any area to join us,
all our members come from
different communities in the area,
this lead us to have
a wealth of knowledge of each other area.
This enables all the children to
interact with other people from these different areas
they
would otherwise not be able to, this leads to
friendships and understanding.

The club has been awarded 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.
Our Clubmark Award 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.
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.
Rob Thickpenny (England Athetics) was on hand this week
at the Junior Club
to officially present us with our ClubMark Certificate
