Dear Manager

As you know the club has grown immensely since its conception back in 1993 which of course is a good thing. However with that in mind the club’s management committee felt the need to have all of the managers knowledge of policies and procedures up to the same level.

The managers pack has been put together to assist you in the running of your team throughout the year. I have tried to cover most matters that may arise throughout the season; however the chances are that I may need to add to the pack throughout the year.

As an ex-manager myself and someone that has been involved in the club since the start, I know and understand the difficulties of running a team, but I also know the joys and happiness that is possible too.

Please remember that we as a club want to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for the children to play their football and for you and your parents to come along to support and cheer the team in the correct manner. There will be times when we will get frustrated with a decision or two, or another parent etc., but we must remember we MUST at no time retaliate. We must hold our heads high, stay calm and let the children do the talking on the football pitch.

As manager, the responsibility starts and stops with you. It`s important this year for you to lead from the front and I am sure your players, parents and supporters will follow the example you set.

Of course it`s great for our teams to be competitive in their respective divisions, but above all we want our teams to be recognized for the overall behavior, discipline and sporting attitude and with that, I am sure will come success!

Good luck for the coming season

Discipline & Complaints Procedure

The club will adhere to all disciplinary procedures set by the relevant county Associations and leagues to which the club belongs. In addition the club will run its own internal procedures. Any member considered bringing the club into disrepute will be dealt with the discretion of the Management Committee.

RIGHT OF APPEAL
A member wishing to appeal a decision by the Management Committee will have the opportunity to do so. This must be in writing (or email) to the Management Committee within 7 days.
The decision by the Management Committee will be final.

In the event that any member feels that he or she has suffered discrimination in any way, or that Club Policies, Rules or Codes of Conduct have been broken, they should follow the procedures below.

1. They should report the matter to the Club Secretary and the Chairperson of the Management Committee in writing (or email).
The report must include:
a) Details of what, and where the incident took place.
b) Names of any witnesses.
c) Names of any others who have been treated in a similar way.
d) Details of any former complaints made about the incident: date, when and to whom made.
e) A preference for a solution to the incident.

2. All complaints will be dealt with by the Management Committee within 10 days of receipt. The Management Committee will consist of 5 people with a minimum of three sitting at any one time, one of whom will be the Child Welfare Officer and one other that will be a senior Manager at the club. If a Management Committee Member is involved in a disciplinary issue he or she must step down from the decision process and their place taken by another member. If conflict of interests exist that member must also step down and not be part of the decision process.

3. The Management Committee will gather statements and decide initially on whether there is a case to answer, and if so, whether the potential breach is deemed to be “minor”, “moderate” or “major”.

4. A “minor” breach would involve an act where action caused no more than minor inconvenience or embarrassment to the offended party.

5. A “major” breach would involve an act that is deemed by the Management Committee to be likely to bring the club into disrepute, such as acts of violence, extreme aggression of serious abuse of referees, match officials, spectators, club members, players of either side or opposition team officials.

6. All other breaches would be considered “moderate”

7. Where the decision is for “no case to answer” or “minor breach”, the offended party and the person(s) accused of the breach will be informed of the decision and the reasons why.

8. For a “minor” breach, a formal hearing with all parties attending would not be required unless specifically asked for by either party. If a hearing is not required, the Management Committee would issue no more than a verbal warning as to future conduct although both parties would be informed of the decision.

9. For “moderate” or “major” breach, a formal hearing would be held to which both parties would be invited. For a “moderate” breach, the likely outcome would be a written warning to the member as to future conduct. For a “major” breach, the formal sanction may involve anything from a written warning, suspension, or expulsion from the club.

10. Before a hearing, the Management Committee will attempt to obtain written statements from the person against whom the complaint was made and from all witnesses named by both parties. These statements will be made available to both parties before a hearing takes place.

11. Any member accused of breaching the codes of conduct is entitled to attend their hearing. If one of the parties is a child (Under 18) then they must be accompanied by an adult.

12. The manager of the Team to which the member belongs will be invited to the hearing and will be allowed to speak at it, but will not be party to the decision process.

13. The Management Committee will have the power to:
a) Warn as to future conduct.
b) Implement fines in addition to those from the league & County
c) Suspension from all club activities
d) Expulsion from the club

Safeguarding Children Policy
Royal Falcons Football Club acknowledges its responsibility to safeguard the welfare of every child and young person who has been entrusted to its care and is committed to working to provide a safe environment for all members. A child or young person is anyone under the age of 18 engaged in any club football activity. We subscribe to The Football Association’s (The FA) Safeguarding Children – Policy and Procedures and endorse and adopt the Policy Statement contained in that document.  
• The key principles of The FA Safeguarding Children Policy are that:  
• the child’s welfare is, and must always be, the paramount consideration  
• all children and young people have a right to be protected from abuse regardless of their age, gender, disability, race, sexual orientation, faith or belief  
• all suspicions and allegations of abuse will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately  
• working in partnership with other organisations, children and young people and their parents/carers is essential.  We acknowledge that every child or young person who plays or participates in football should be able to take part in an enjoyable and safe environment and be protected from poor practice and abuse.  Royal Falcons FC recognises that this is the responsibility of every adult  involved in our club.  
Royal Falcons FC has a role to play in safeguarding the welfare of all children and young people by protecting them from physical, sexual or emotional harm and from neglect or bullying. It is noted and accepted that The Football Association’s Safeguarding Children Regulations (see The FA Handbook) applies to everyone in football whether in a paid or voluntary capacity. This means whether you are a volunteer, match official, helper on club tours, football coach, club official or medical staff.  
We endorse and adopt The FA’s Responsible Recruitment guidelines for recruiting volunteers and we will:  
• specify what the role is and what tasks it involves  
• request identification documents  
• as a minimum meet and chat with the applicant(s)  and where possible interview people before appointing them  
• ask for and follow up with 2 references before appointing someone  
• where eligible require an FA accepted Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check (DBS) with Barring List Check in line with current FA policy and regulations.  
• All current Royal Falcons FC members working in eligible roles, with children and young people - such as managers and coaches are required to hold an in-date FA accepted Enhanced DBS with Barring List check as part of responsible recruitment practice1.  If there are concerns regarding the appropriateness of an individual who is already involved or who has approached us to become part of Royal Falcons FC guidance will be sought from The Football Association. It is noted and accepted that The FA will consider the relevance and significance of the information obtained via the DBS Process and that all suitability decisions will be made in accordance with legislation and in the best interests of children and young people.  It is accepted that The FA aims to prevent people with a history of relevant and significant offending from having contact with children or young people and the opportunity to influence policies or practice with children or young people. This is to prevent direct sexual or physical harm to children and to minimise the risk of ‘grooming’ within football.  

Royal Falcons FC supports The FA’s Whistle Blowing Policy.
Any adult or young person with concerns about an adult in a position of trust with football can ‘whistle blow’ by contacting The FA Safeguarding Team on 0800 169 1863, by writing to The FA Case Manager at The Football Association, Wembley Stadium, PO Box 1966, London SW1P 9EQ,
by emailing Safeguarding@TheFA.com or alternatively by going direct to the Police, Children’s Social Care or the NSPCC.
Royal Falcons encourages everyone to know about The FA’s Whistle
Blowing Policy and to utilise it if necessary.
Royal Falcons FC has appointed a Club Welfare Officer in line with The FA’s role profile and required completion of the Safeguarding Children and Welfare Officers Workshop. The post holder will be involved with Welfare Officer training provided by The FA and/or County FA. The Club Welfare Officer is the first point of contact for all club members regarding concerns about the welfare of any child or young person. The Club Welfare Officer will liaise directly with the County FA (CFA) Welfare Officer and will be familiar with the procedures for referring any concerns. They will also play a proactive role in increasing awareness of Respect, poor practice and abuse amongst club members.
We acknowledge and endorse The FA’s identification of bullying as a category of abuse. Bullying of any kind is not acceptable at our club. If bullying does occur, all players or parents/carers should be able to tell and know that incidents will be dealt with promptly. Incidents need to be reported to the Club Welfare Officer in cases of serious bullying the CFA Welfare Officer may be contacted.
Respect codes of conduct for Players, Parents/ Spectators, Officials and Coaches have been implemented by Football Club. In order to validate these Respect codes of conduct the club has clear actions it will take regarding repeated or serious misconduct at club level and acknowledges the possibility of potential sanctions which may be implemented by the County FA in more serious circumstances.
Reporting your concerns about the welfare of a child or young person. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility if you are worried about a child it is important that you report your concerns – no action is not an option.
i. If you are worried about a child then you need to report your concerns to the Club Welfare Officer.
