CODE OF CONDUCT

Formed in 1966, Etwall Tennis Club is based at Etwall Leisure Centre. We are a small, friendly club, who believe that tennis is a sport to be enjoyed by all in a sociable environment.  It is everyone’s responsibility to maintain this.

We expect members and visitors alike to abide by our Code of Conduct.  All members and visitors should:

• Be friendly, supportive and welcoming to members and visitors
• Help to create a safe and inclusive environment both on and off court
• Adhere to the club’s safeguarding policy, diversity and inclusion policy, rules and regulations.
• Have the relevant consent from parents/carers, members and visitors before taking or using photos and videos.
• Avoid being alone with a child member unless there are exceptional circumstances.
• Avoid physical contact with children unless it is necessary as part of an emergency or congratulatory (eg. handshake / high five).
• Be a positive role model.
• Act with integrity always.
• Actively stop/discourage any rough or dangerous behaviour, bullying or the use of bad or inappropriate language.
• Report all allegations of abuse or poor practice to the club Welfare Officer.
