Notes
Safeguarding & Coaching Requirements
The safety and wellbeing of our athletes is a priority at Haywards Heath Harriers.
All coaches and volunteers must meet the safeguarding requirements appropriate to their role. Where required, this includes a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, safeguarding training and relevant coaching qualifications.
Don't worry if you're new to coaching — we'll guide you through the requirements and support you every step of the way.
