Juniors training rules

These rules apply to any member of Palmers Green under the age of 16 in order to ensure safeguarding procedures:

  • Players are only officially in our care once they have signed in with the coach – players who are arriving by themselves will not be deemed under our duty of care until they have signed in.

  • Players under the age of 18 will not be allowed to leave training alone unless they have written permission from a parent/carer – this permission can be sent to the coach at the start of the season. If permission is given, once players have left the training facility, they are no longer under our duty of care.

  • Mobile phones are not to be used during training times to ensure all players are engaged in the session and are listening to the coach

We would like to ensure all our members (both playing and non-playing) feel supported and safe at Palmers Green

Netball Club. We would therefore like to remind you that if you have any questions, worries or queries, that the committee is here to help and assist you.
