WWC + Child Safe Standards
Atoms Basketball Club is committed to the safety and well being of all children and young people. We support the rights of the child and will act without hesitation to ensure a child safe environment is maintained at all times.
Every season Coaches and Team Managers are also required to complete the Member Protection Declaration.
The Club has adopted the policies set by Basketball Victoria and the Camberwell Basketball Association and requires all Team Managers AND Coaches over 18 years of age, to comply with the Victorian Government Working with Children Check. The form is available from, and can be submitted at, any Australia Post outlet or for more information visit the link below
The Working with Children (WWC) Check commenced in April 2006 and it contributes to the safety of Victoria's children when they are being cared for, or participating in a range of activities. The WWC Check creates a mandatory minimum checking standard across Victoria. The WWC Check helps to keep children safe by preventing those who pose a risk to the safety of children from working with them, in either paid or volunteer work. More information on the Child Safe Standards are available on the Basketball Victoria website.
