In these interactive workshops, you will learn about common risks to children in community sport. What are the high-risk situations and how can we be safer? Not only will this help you to keep the children at your club safe, but you will also find ways to avoid placing adults in risky situations. By the end of this workshop, you will be able to identify and manage the child safety risks at your club.
