Eversley Cricket Club

Eversley Cricket Club has successfully achieved Sport England's Clubmark, which is awarded to clubs by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

Clubmark is a cross-sport recognition of sports clubs that are committed to providing a safe, effective, child friendly environment.

By maintaining our Clubmark status is required to present evidence and demonstrate implementation and impact across four different themes, reflected in the production of a Club Development Plan.

The four themes are:

1) Duty of Care and Safeguarding Children
2) The Cricket Programme
3) Knowing your club and and its Community - One Game
4) Club Management

Clubmark is an acknowledgement that we take these issues seriously and that we are striving to provide a high quality and welcoming environment for young participants in the sport.

Eversley Cricket Club has adopted (see Rules & Regulations, Rule 7n) and implements the following policies:

Eversley Cricket Club has undertaken risk assessments for its four playing and coaching facilities.

The risk assessments have highlighted the following:

1. Cars and vehicles using the gravel roads alongside the main ground must adhere to the 5 mph speed limit.

2. The small stream running behind the main club house and dividing the two grounds represents a potential hazard to small children. Parents must remain vigiliant and ensure small children are under supervision at all times.

3. Balls being struck into the Reading Road represent a risk to vehicles and other traffic. Coaches must ensure that training and matches are organised to avoid the risk of cricket balls being stuck into the road. Any cricket balls struck into the road must be retrieved by an adult.

Without volunteers there quite simply would be no cricket at Eversley.

All our volunteers are vital to the club both on and off the pitch and without the commitment of all those who help we would not be able to be as successful as we are.
