Safeguarding

Sport can and does have a very powerful and positive influence on people - especially young people.

It provide opportunities for enjoyment and achievement, it can also develop valuable qualities such as self-esteem, leadership and teamwork. These positive effects can only take place if sport takes place in the right environment and those who place the welfare of all young people first and adopt practices that support, protect and empower them.

Isle of Man Netball has produced a document to ensure that netball on the Island is as safe as it can be for all children, young people and vulnerable adults. 

You can view our Safeguarding booklet below which explains our policy as best practice for all employees, coaches, officials, and volunteers working for or on behalf of Isle of Man Netball. Isle of Man Netball has the valued support of the Isle of Man Safeguarding Children Board (SCB) and recognises them as key partners in any future collaborations related to safeguarding young people involved in sport on the Island.
