Australian Cricket, comprising Cricket Australia and each of the State and Territory Cricket Associations, seeks to provide a safe, fair and inclusive environment for everyone involved in cricket and in particular Children and Young People.
We are committed to supporting everyone involved in our sport including Affiliated Associations and Clubs to safeguard Children and Young People in their care. Part of this commitment to Children and Young People in our sport means that we are inclusive of those from a range of different backgrounds. This includes but is not limited to:
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children and Young People
Children and Young People with a disability
LGBTQ+ Children and Young People; and
Children and Young People from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
The Children’s Guardian Amendment (Child Safe Scheme) Bill 2021 introduced 10 Child Safe Standards to create safer environments and organisations.
The Child Safe Standards are:
Child safety is embedded in organisational leadership, governance and culture
Children participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously
Families and communities are informed and involved
Equity is upheld and diverse needs are taken into account
People working with children are suitable and supported
Processes to respond to complaints of child abuse are child focused
Staff are equipped with the knowledge, skills and awareness to keep children safe through continual education and training
Physical and online environments minimise the opportunity for abuse to occur
Implementation of the Child Safe Standards is continuously reviewed and improved
Policies and procedures document how the organisation is child safe.
Cricket NSW is committed to supporting the volunteers of cricket clubs and associations to uphold the 10 Child Safe Standards and to offer a safe, enjoyable and rewarding environment for everyone involved.
If you believe a child is in immediate danger or in a life-threatening situation, contact the Police immediately on 000.
In the event of a complaint or allegation of child abuse that indicates child abuse has/may have or is likely to occur, you must immediately notify the police and/or the relevant state/territory government agency. For information on reporting allegations of child abuse, you may view Schedule B of the CNSW Member Protection Policy.
