Our Child Safety Policies
Rosebud Cricket Club has adopted Australian Cricket’s Policy for Safeguarding Children and Young People, designed to sit across Australian Cricket, from Cricket Australia right through to local associations and clubs.
In doing so, the policy creates a framework for ensuring that Children and Young People that play cricket are safe and assists us in delivering a child safe sport and complying with State and Territory laws, with the support of Cricket Australia and the State and Territory Associations.
Australian Cricket’s Policy for Safeguarding Children and Young People is supported by Australian Cricket’s Looking After Our Kids Code of Behaviour for Australian Cricket Personnel and Australian Cricket’s Looking After Our Kids Code of Behaviour for Affiliated Associations and Clubs.
Our Commitment
As part of our commitment to Children and Young People, Australian Cricket and Rosebud Cricket Club seek to:

- ensure that the experiences of Children and Young People are free from any form of Child Abuse, Bullying, Harassment or other inappropriate conduct such as Grooming;
