Working with Children Check (WWCC. In June 2013 significant changes were introduced to the Child Protection and Working with Children requirements which apply to all touch football clubs, Affiliates and regions and their members. The purpose of these changes by the NSW State Government is to improve the safeguards and child protection processes that help to keep touch football safe and enjoyable for all participants. All NSWTA affiliates MUST be compliant with the legislation as of April 1 2016 and have implemented these requirements within their membership. The Working With Children Check (WWCC) is a legal requirement that applies to persons who work or volunteer with children (U18). It checks the background of persons who work or volunteer with children in sport clubs, schools, child care centres, community groups, churches and other organisations. Once you verify a WWCC you must keep appropriate records that prove your members are cleared to work with children. You must also provide this record to Hornets. Each affiliate must register as an employee, have all coach/management teams undergo the prescribed check and verify all and report to Hornets prior to a Hornets tournament. Please refer to the accompanying Working With Children Check documentation to understand the process required.
