Child Protection

Atherstone Adders Hockey Club believes that all young people involved in hockey have a fundamental right to be protected so that they can enjoy the sport free from all forms of abuse and exploitation.  Our Club therefore seeks to help protect and promote the welfare of all young people in hockey by having in place clear policies and guidance for everyone who is associated with our Club.

Atherstone Adders Hockey Club believes that all members of the Club have responsibilities to help protect young people while they are playing hockey in our Club.

All the information and guidance here is in accordance with the English Hockey Association's policy advice. 



Child Protection Policy

Atherstone Adders Hockey Club (AAHC) operates its own Child Protection Policy, as set out below, and also in conjunction with the advice and guidance and codes of conduct provided by the English Hockey Association.

AAHC provides a safe place for children to come and learn the game of hockey and participate in both coaching and matches, as well as social events.  In doing so, the Clubs members (particularly its coaches) regularly come into contact with children and young people.
