The FA Child Welfare Officer Workshop (WOW)

This workshop is part of The FA’s strategy to have a trained Club Welfare Officer at all youth football clubs in the country.

To attend this workshop you must have satisfied The FA criminal records bureau process (CRB) and have attended The FA Safeguarding Children (formerly Child Protection – Best Practice) in Football Workshop.

By the end of the workshop you will be able to:

  • Identify, the club / league building blocks that need to be operational to demonstrate best practice in relation to safeguarding
  • Have a clear understanding of the Club Welfare Officer’s role and responsibilities, along with those for others in the safeguarding support network
  • Act upon concerns about poor practice & pass on those of possible abuse within or outside football
  • Make an action plan to address any gaps within your club / league.
