Hi Everyone,
Thank you for all you do to support the safety and well-being of our netball community. Here are this month’s safeguarding updates and resources to support your club: |
We've noticed that some clubs:
• Still don’t have a Club Safeguarding Officer (CSO) • Have CSOs without a valid DBS through England Netball • Have CSOs (and other committee roles) that don't have an England Netball membership (and therefore no insurance cover) • Have coaches who lack the required DBS checks
Check out our minimum standards below... |
NETBALLHer
NETBALLHer is our female health initiative, launched in 2023 to break down physical and mental health barriers that women and girls may face, both on and off the court. Check out our resources via the button below or watch this short video from Buddle for more support, specifically around mental health. |
Eating Disorders
Eating disorders and over‑exercising are serious mental illnesses that can affect anyone through compulsive, excessive exercise often used to control weight or cope, and require informed support and intervention. |
