Child safety

Our commitment

Elite Cricket Academy is committed to being a child safe organisation in line with the Victorian Child Safe Standards. We have zero tolerance for child abuse and harm, and we take every concern seriously.

What we do

• Every coach and staff member working with children holds a current Working with Children Check.
• Sessions and holiday programs are supervised by our staff throughout, in open training areas.
• We record each player's emergency contact and any medical needs, and parents or guardians give consent for participation, photos and video.
• Photos and video of children are used for coaching only with consent, and for promotion only with separate consent.
• Communication with children is kept to coaching purposes, and parents are included.

If a child is in immediate danger, call 000.
