England Hockey is committed to ensuring that young people are able to enjoy the sport of hockey free from harm, abuse and exploitation. It is vital that everyone in hockey knows how and when to report concerns about any action that effects the welfare of a young person.
England Hockey will challenge conduct that does not comply with the safeguarding policy and any behaviour that has or is likely to pose a risk of harm to children or young people in hockey.
These Regulations set out a framework for England Hockey to investigate and decide upon such matters and the disciplinary actions that may be taken.
