Child Welfare

At Bromley Lacrosse Club, the safety and well-being of every child is our top priority. We are committed to creating a positive, fun, and safe environment where all players can enjoy the game and thrive.

To ensure this:

1. All eligible coaches and volunteers aged 16 and over are DBS checked.
2. At least 50% of all committee members, club volunteers and coaches will hold a current first aid qualification.
3. We strictly follow the guidelines set by our sport’s governing bodies regarding child and player welfare.
4. Our club has its own Code of Conduct and Terms and Conditions of Membership designed to promote respect, fairness, and safety for all members.

You can find these documents attached to this pack and on our website at: www.bromleylacrosse.com
