REGISTRATION OF INTEREST FOR AN EXCITING WORKSHOP

I am working with Kent Sports Development on a project to run a workshop called ‘crossing the line’ which relates to safeguarding –potentially at the Corn Exchange, Maidstone in the Spring.  It is a theatrical group called Geese that put on a production with audience participation (no you don’t have to get up and act)!! 

It has been run in other Counties and the feedback has been fantastic.

It is something a little more engaging than the normal training, and I believe it would be extremely beneficial as well as interesting.

At the moment we are trying to see who would be interested.

Please click here for the information flyer and let me know if it is something you would like to attend.

We are trying to keep the cost down as much as we possibly can, but it may be required to charge a fee of approximately £20 per person, which we are hoping the clubs will support the welfare officer with.

It would count towards part of your CPD too.

If you could email me please at val.hajialexandrou@kent fa.com and let me know you would like to join us, and at the moment we would like to know what people think about the timing, would day or evening be preferable.  We will then run with the majority.

Thanks everyone for your input.

Best wishes

GOALPOST SAFETY

A 12 year old boy was killed a few weeks ago in Wales when goalposts he and his friends were using informally fell on him.  It appears these posts were left unanchored and not properly stored resulting in this tragic accident.

Please can you take this opportunity to remind you all of the FA Goalpost safety campaign and the documentation supporting this.  A link is provided below, can I ask you to re circulate this to remind your managers & coaches the dangers that unmanaged, unsafe or unsecured goalposts can pose.
