8. Changing Facilities


Changing Facilities

11. Finchley RFC ensures all its' coaches, parents, officials and spectators are aware that adults must not use the changing facilities at the same time as children, young people or vulnerable adults.

12. Adults must only enter changing rooms when absolutely necessary due to poor behaviour, injury or illness. Adults may only ever enter the changing rooms by themselves in an emergency and if waiting for another adult could result in harm to a child. If children need supervising in changing rooms, or coaches or managers need to carry out a range of tasks in that environment this must involve two DBS checked individuals of the same gender as the children

13. No pressure should be placed on young people who feel uncomfortable changing or showering with others, if this is the case they should be allowed to shower or change at home.
