Play it Safe Course information

Notice from DCRFU Safeguarding Team

As you will no doubt be aware Safeguarding is of great importance to everyone involved at clubs, the RFU have their own Safeguarding course that is aimed at all volunteers in clubs called Play it Safe.

I understand that there has been a lack of these courses in the past few years. Clubs are now able to book direct with myself to book in a course, there is a minimum number of 10 needed and a max of 20 per course.

Please see RFU information from the website and link below:

PLAY IT SAFE

This three-hour safeguarding course is for any volunteer, coach or match official who is working with or who has responsibility for children within rugby. Club Safeguarding Officers can request to run this course in your rugby club by using the Play it Safe Tutor map. Simply find your nearest tutor, make contact and agree a suitable date and time. Please note that we ask for a 6-week lead-in time, between the point of course request and the course start date. The cost of the course is £10 per delegate, each receiving accreditation.

Once the course date has been agreed, a link will be shared so that delegates can book directly via GMS.
