The volunteer, coaches and committee of the club have a responsibility to all players and their families to respect their confidentiality. 

The volunteer, coaches and committee will be discreet about all information made known to them.  All records relating to the players attending the club will be kept secure and accessed only when there is a need to know. 

The only occasion when volunteer, coaches and committee may use their discretion when passing on information will be in the situation where it is suspected that a player is at risk.  In this case the volunteer, coaches and committee may feel it necessary to pass on information to the relevant authority without informing the player’s family. This will only be done when it is considered to be in the best interested of the player. 

Members of volunteers, coaches or members of the committee will treat with confidentiality any matter discussed with them which relates to a player.
