The Club Children’s Officers shall assist in promoting a child and youth centred ethos in the Club. The key role of the Club Children’s Officers is to ensure the implementation and promotion of the relevant Code of Behaviour (Underage), so as to ensure that young people can participate, enjoy and benefit from our Gaelic Games in safe and enjoyable surroundings.
All GAA clubs must have a Designated Liaison Officer who shall be responsible at an initial stage for dealing with any concerns relating to the possible abuse of children as reported or made known to them.
Each association, GAA, LGFA, Camogie, has a mandated person who is the point of contact should an issue need to be further addressed.
If you are a Juvenile member who has concerns or is worried about your treatment within the Club OR an adult member or parent who has concerns about the welfare of a child you are urged to contact the Children’s Officer. You can be assured you will be dealt with professionally and in the strictest confidence.
