2018 Season Changes
From the 2018 Season and onwards, Football NSW has expanded the categories of individuals requiring the NSW Governments Working With Children Check (WWCC).
Under the new policy, the following categories will no longer be exempt and will require a WWC Number
- Volunteer parents or close relatives coaching or managing their own child’s or close relative’s team;
- Referees
Persons aged under 18 years, even if they fall into the above categories, will remain exempt.
Coaches and Managers
- All paid persons and all volunteer Coaches, Managers, Technical Directors and other roles which require working or volunteering with children under 18 years now require a WWCC.
- This means that all parents coaching or managing a Penshurst West FC team in which their child plays, must obtain a WWCC and provide a valid WWC Number to the PWFC Registrar.
