SAFEGUARDING

​​At FDW Sports, we believe that every young person should have access to a safe and inclusive sporting environment, regardless of race, culture, identity, gender, or ability.

As a national database, our primary role is to collect and share information on sporting organisations, helping parents and young athletes discover a wide range of sporting opportunities within their local and surrounding communities.

In addition, we recognise that strong safeguarding policies are fundamental to ensuring the well-being and protection of young people in sports.

 

Moreover, sporting organisations must establish and uphold robust frameworks that not only reinforce their core values but also support the sustainable growth of grassroots sports. By doing so, they create pathways for young athletes to develop, excel, and reach their full potential.

Safeguarding is not optional--it is essential. Because no young person should ever experience mistreatment or abuse that could hinder their natural development in their chosen sport.

 

Their safety, confidence, and ability to thrive must always come first.

These young athletes are our future contenders, champions, and role models. By protecting and empowering them today, we inspire the next generation to rise and achieve greatness.

Thank you,

FDW Sports
