Safeguarding, codes and policies 

"When I first came to England to play I saw coaches having a go at players when they made mistakes and they would literally be talking them through the game. In Portugal the coach would sit on the bench and not say a word. We’d just play. It was a matter of us making mistakes and learning from them by ourselves. You understand the game a lot better that way."
Eric Dier, Tottenham Hotspurs and England

Parents', players' and coaches' codes
​

 DUE FOR REVIEW 2023

For players, playing for a team with your mates is great fun.
For parents, watching your kids play is quality time.
For coaches and managers, working with the kids is really rewarding.
But all three come with responsibilities.

Players have to respect each other, the team and their opponents .
Parents have to be supportive and set a good example.
Coaches and managers have to represent the club and look after our children.

We use the FA Respect Codes as a minimum baseline. Rovers aims higher and aims to implement high standards the club. In practice, not just on paper.

OUR CURRENT CODES ARE UNDER REVIEW.  THIS REVIEW IS BEING ACTIVELY LED BY CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE.

Children's Rights

An essential part of effective safeguarding is to make sure all children's rights are respected at the club.

Rovers is committed to embedding the rights set out in the United Nation's Convention on the Rights of the Child in our club practice.

This means ensuring that children are aware of their rights and that coaches and volunteers receive training and guidance on protecting children's right to be heard...​
