Winchcombe Tennis Club will carry out a quarterly risk assessment of the club facilities to identify potential hazards.

We will consider the results of the Risk Assessment at a Committee meeting, and implement appropriate actions to ensure that we maintain a safe environment for our members.

The risk assessment includes the following areas:

• Playing area - Are the courts clear and free of obstacles, algae and vegetation ?  Wear and Tear of the surface to be noted.
• Wire Fencing - Is this sound and free of snags ?
• Is the equipment fit and sound for activity and suitable for age and ability?
• Are performers appropriately attired for the activity?
• Do volunteers, staff, coaches and members have access to information relating to health and safety?
• Is the members register up to date with medical information and contact details?
• Can emergency vehicles access the facilities?
• Paths, Steps and Car Park - are these items hazard free ?

Our Hazard Log will be kept updated from time to time.  Key hazards to be assessed will include:

1. Potential for slips and trips on the courts during play
2. Potential for accidents in car park

The detailed hazard log will be uploaded to the website once an upload function is available, expected in June 2018.

In the meantime, if you would like to see a copy of the register, please contact Peter Udale
