Risk Assessment
Training
As with all activities, a suitable dynamic risk assessment should be conducted for each
training session which will be based upon:
●
●
●
Prevailing weather conditions
Ground conditions
Players fitness (Individual and as a group)
Training Equipment
Where it is assessed that the conditions present a risk, then the training should not be
conducted or should be adapted to mitigate any risks.
All training equipment should be examined before use for suitability and safety, no
equipment should be used that is either damaged or could cause harm to a child
additionally training equipment should be used in a way that will not cause harm or
injury.
Goals
Goals usually are the most significant risk and are to be anchored and set up in a way to
prevent injury and are to be checked prior to use. A more detailed guide is included
within this Manual.
Training Sessions
Coaches should plan each session. To assist Coaches there is a training plan template within this
manual.
To assist club coaches RCJFC has purchased the FA Grassroots Future Game Manuals.
These are held by the Club Secretary and can be loaned to Coaches on a short time basis.
