Fylde RFC's Mini-Junior Section has always followed strict child protection policies to ensure the welfare of all young people who play for the Club. Indeed, such policies are a vital ingredient of the Club's RFU Seal of Approval status.

The Club has now agreed and is implementing a new Child Protection & Welfare Policy. This detailed 28 page document edited by the Club's new Child Protection Officer John Roper covers such the following important matters:

• Recognising Abuse and Poor Practice,
• Bullying
• Roles and Responsibilities
• Taking Appropriate Action
• Recruitment and Selection, Coaches and Volunteers
• Good Practice
• Useful Contact Details

The Policy has a number of appendices:

• Club Procedures to Manage Cases of Poor Practice
• Terms of Reference for Club Welfare Officer
• Coaches Code of Conduct
• Anti Bullying Policy
• Application and Reference Forms
• Incident Report Form
• Photographic Images
