Dudley Sport & Physical Activity team will be at the club house on Monday 9th November between 7.30 and 8.30pm to conduct the CRB checks for the club. Many of you have already received your SEAL packs which I would ask you (if you havent already done so ) complete and hand in to the team on 9.11.09.

THE CHECKS ARE FREE UNDER ” SEAL” Seal packs can be downloaded via seal@dudley.gov.uk.

The CRB checks apply to all coaches and volunteers of under 18s, committee members and club officials.
You are asked to bring the following with you if applicable:

1. Coaching certificates (original and a copy)
2. Child Protection certificates (original and a copy)
3. Equity course certificates (original and a copy)
4. First Aid certificates (original and a copy)
5. AND YOU MUST BRING TWO PASSPORT SIZED PHOTOS

Dudley Sports are putting themselves out to visit the club house so late and assist with the club achieving the Club First accreditation, I would ask that you all attend. The main room has been booked for the visit.

A funding application to England Hockey will be submitted this week for a new astro at Wassall Grove. One of the funding conditions is that the club is awarded The Clubs First accreditation prior to February 2010. We are well on the way to reaching that date but clearly without the CRB checks we would not qualify for accreditation.
