March 2023 Update:-
- Withdrawal of the online SYC (Safeguarding Young Children) course, and its replacement – Safeguarding For Specialists
The ‘old’ SYC course has been updated and replaced by a new version. Previously this course was a mandatory requirement for the likes of Coaches & CSOs. However, the ECB have now opened up access to this course to everyone in the cricket network and are encouraging the wider Club membership to sit the course.
The main part of the course known as Safeguarding For Specialists accounts for 80% of the content, with 4 variants making up the remaining 20% catering for the likes of Committee Members, Scorers/Umpires, Captains & Team Managers
Please encourage your Club members to register by visiting the Cricket Wales website for more information &/or clicking on the links below.
