Clubmark is the universally acknowledged cross-sport accreditation scheme for community sports clubs. It stands for higher standards of welfare, equity, coaching and management.
South Leicester Youth Hockey is working towards ClubMark accreditation and adopts the policies and procedures in line with guidelines.
South Leicester Youth Hockey is committed to ensuring that all coaches, managers, volunteers, players and spectators adhere to strict codes of conduct both on and off the pitch. We have made available our policies and procedures here. Please ensure that you read them carefully.
England Hockey has a Code of Ethics & Behaviour which covers all people involved in hockey in this country. Everyone involved in the sport should promote equality of access and opportunity, fairness and respect. All those involved within hockey have a responsibility to act according to the highest standards of integrity and to ensure that the reputation of the sport remains high. This code encapsulates all of the sporting, moral and ethical principles that hockey represents and is intended for all participants and disciplines within the sport however they choose to participate – as a player, umpire, coach, official, volunteer or a parent supporting on the sidelines.
We enforce our safeguarding policy which all players, coaches, managers and parents are invited to read and use as reference for any issues that might be of concern.
We are proud to support the FIH ideals of inclusion, diversity and respect. As part of this, we are committed to meeting all obligations in all aspects of player safety and child welfare.
