As a Safe Hands Management Club, the Club has an on-going commitment to being a safe, effective and child-friendly cricket club. If for any reason you are concerned about any aspect of the club in respect of the way the junior section is run or any behaviour you consider inappropriate, please contact Brian Dawbarn (07985-096375) or the Deputy Safeguarding Officer, Geoff Morgan (07850-285438). You may also email safeguarding@rayleighcc.com.

Details of indoor coaching at Fitzwimarc School during the winter and outdoor from Easter to September at Rawreth Lane will be published on the Club website.

Club policy is that parents or other responsible adults are responsible for transporting players to and from all matches and practice sessions and therefore the Club will not be registering Private Vehicles for the transportation of individuals in connection with any fixtures or practice sessions arranged by the Club. The implementation of this policy is not intended to exclude any player from participation and parents or guardians should contact the Club Safeguarding Officer or Deputy if they have any problems with the transportation of players to matches or practice sessions.

Please make every effort to pick your child(ren) up on time as the coaches are often playing matches after coaching and have to wait until every child is picked up. In the unlikely event that you cannot find your child, please speak immediately to a coach, who will implement the missing child policy in accordance with our code of practice.

It is Club policy that all players up to the age of 18 will wear helmets with a face-guard or grille should be worn when batting against a hard cricket ball in matches and in practice sessions and young wicket keepers should wear a helmet with a face-guard when standing up to the stumps.
