Club Governance

Rayleigh Cricket Club is dedicated to maintaining high standards of governance to create a safe, inclusive, and enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Our club constitution, along with a range of policies and forms, sets clear standards that support transparency, safety, and respect within the club.

These documents guide everything from safeguarding young players to ensuring fair play, protecting member privacy, and fostering a positive environment. We continually review and improve our governance practices, ensuring they reflect best practices and uphold the values that make our cricket community strong.
