Best Practice Guidelines for Coaching
Children & Young People's Activities |
Joint Guidance by sports coach UK & the
Child Protection in Sport Unit
The
document outlines suggested best practice,
not minimum legal
requirements.
It builds on the work of
many governing bodies of sport and other
coach employing/ deploying organisations who
already issue specific advice on minimum
coach-to-participant supervision ratios (and
a range of other factors linked to the
welfare and safety of participants).
It is hoped that the document will:
•
enhance existing practice
• provide
guidance in areas where none currently
exists |
