Safeguarding in Sports

 Create a healthier culture and a more open environment for your organisation

The Importance of Safeguarding

Safeguarding in sport is the system by which organizations create a safe environment for children and adults to train and compete. Today, it's a must-have, especially when working with young athletes.

Below, you'll find safeguarding best practices and thought leadership from Premier League, Championship, and MLS clubs. Learn how these elite organisations keep parents informed and enable their staff with the necessary controls to effectively protect young players.

"We wanted to get away from WhatsApp where there's no history. If a member of staff had inappropriate communication with a young person, we would have no oversight of that. With Teamworks Hub, we can check those things directly."

How Wolves Protects Players & Ensures Compliance

"WhatsApp would have people’s personal numbers, where coaches could be directly contacted or get directly in contact with players.”

Since we are dealing with minors, I want parents to be able to see everything, so their (Teamworks Hub) accounts are linked to their parents. They have the same login, they see everything that the players see, so everything is out in the open, nothing is private.

We utilise the files section in Hub to provide parents and players an array of resources. We found this beneficial as now players and parents have a place to go to find out more information or to download resources to support their son on their journey through the academy."
