Safe Golf

We are delighted to announce that in February 2022 we secured the SafeGolf Award from England Golf and we continue to be credited.

Policy Statement

Sale Golf Club is committed to ensuring everyone participating in golf does so in a safe, welcoming, inclusive and enjoyable environment. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, including committee members, staff, volunteers, coaches, PGA professionals engaged by the Organisation, members, parents/carers and visitors. Individually and collectively, our actions help create a positive culture where concerns are recognised and addressed.

The Organisation recognises and fully adopts the England Golf’s safeguarding policies and procedures and adheres to their guidance and best practice, for children and young people and for adults. These national policies set expectations and guidance documents provide resources to support best practice across the game. Importantly, each golf organisation has its own duty of care and is responsible for implementing safeguarding arrangements that are appropriate to its activities, facilities, and people.

The safeguarding policies can be viewed here: https://www.englandgolf.org/safeguarding”.
