We also support the team managers and trainers in any incidents or concerns. We can then liaise with the Essex FA as required to ensure all the young players are kept safe.
We attend regular training with the Essex FA which is complimented by our experience of working in schools as teachers. This ensures that our skill set is maintained and supports the club in decisions to best meet the needs of all involved.
Please feel free to make contact with us if you would like to discuss or report any concerns. All parental, child and club volunteer concerns are taken seriously by the club and dealt with in the confidence appropriate to the individual situation.
