.         We advise all clubs who may have members who are juniors or vulnerable adults to have their own Safeguarding Policy and Guidelines.  The simplest way is, like the League, to adopt the TTE documents unaltered.  Such clubs should also have their own Welfare Officer.  Follow this link for Club/League Welfare Officer Role Description.
