Skillz FC is strongly committed to encouraging our club attendees to take part, but the health, well-being and safety of each individual is always our paramount concern. We recommend levels of participation dependent on age and ability and expect our attendees to participate within these boundaries. We will ensure, as far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and wellbeing of our coaches, volunteers and participants and will comply with all relevant Health and Safety Legislation.

We recognise the risk posed by Coronavirus (COVID-19) to our coaches, volunteers, participants, their parents/ guardians/ carers and their families and will take steps to minimise the risk of infection and the transmission of the virus as advised by Government, local authority and the FA.

Code of Conduct – Spectators and Parents/Guardians/Carers:

Play your part and observe The FA’s Respect Code of Conduct for spectators and parents/guardians/carers at all times.

I will:

Remain outside the field of play and behind the Designated Spectator Area barrier
Never engage in, or tolerate, offensive, insulting, aggressive or abusive language or behaviour
Always respect coaches’ decisions
Applaud effort and good play as well as success
Remember that children play for FUN
Let the coaches do their job and not confuse the players by telling them what to do
Encourage the players to respect each other and coaches
Never criticise a player for making a mistake – mistakes are part of learning.

Code of Conduct – Young Players

As a player, you have a big part to play. That’s why The FA is asking every player to follow a Respect Code of Conduct.

When playing football and when training, I will:

Always behave myself
Always do my best
Play fairly- I won’t cheat, complain or waste time
Never be rude to my team-mates, spectators or my coach
Listen to my coach and respect what he/she says

About Dainewell Park

Access via Hornbeam Close or Elmwood, Sale. M33. Car parking only available at the Hornbeam entrance.

The Friends of Dainewell Park (FODP) group was created in 2011 and formally constituted in February 2012 to develop and improve the park for the benefit of the neighbourhood. Our objectives include:

Engaging widely with stakeholders in the community (residents, local businesses, schools, agencies) to develop a plan of agreed improvements to the park

Implementing those improvements as funding becomes available

Organising events and activities which all members of our local community can participate in.

Consultation with residents, schools, people who use the park and those whose homes surround the park, has been, and remains, very important to the Friends Committee. The initial high level plans for the park were presented at a public meeting in February 2012 and have been refreshed and communicated since that date via regular emails, social media communications and meetings and events which have been held on or near the park.

Ensuring access to the park, and its facilities, for all members of our local community is a priority for the Committee and to facilitate this, we have worked with a school (Manor Academy) which adjoins the park. Its pupils are all children with special education needs (SEN). Previous joint initiatives include (for example) a maze, which the children designed, and an intensive sporting programme, led by FODP and Manor Academy, which saw children with SEN enjoying sporting activities (such as lacrosse, running, basketball, rounders, football, etc) with mainstream pupils from a number of other local schools
