The club commitment to all Volunteers -
Once a new volunteer has being identified and the committee have vetted them and agreed for them to take on a role within the club, the following programme will be put in place.
The Club will:
• Arrange for a CRB check to be done if working directly with U18’s (await results before taking up role).
• Introduce them to the clubs volunteer coordinator.
• Affiliate them to England Netball if required or ensure they are covered on the clubs volunteer insurance policy.
• Give them a copy of our volunteer policy and the job description / roles & responsibilities for the rule they are taking on – and talk through them and if applicable get them to sign the relevant codes of conduct.
• Give them a copy of the player’s codes of conduct and rules so they can see what we have in place within the club.
• Advise them that all our codes / rules etc can be found on the web site and ask them to read them, and come back and ask any questions.
• Give them a copy of the clubs constitution for points of reference (again this is on the web site).
• Arrange for any kit to be made available to them that they may require.
• Arrange an appropriate mentor for them and introduce them to him/her.
Between the mentor and the volunteer they will agree:
• Period on mentoring required.
• Type of mentoring required.
• Agree the length of the induction (probation period).
• Review periods.
• Any additional training requirements required - the mentor will arrange with the clubs volunteer coordinator / committee for this training to happen and advise / agree the timescale with the volunteer.
• Agree and discuss any other requirements the volunteer may have.
• Agree the sessions / events / activities the volunteer will be involved in.
