The Junior Section is run almost entirely by volunteers who give their time to provide boys and girls with the opportunity to play cricket. The majority are, or have been, parents of junior players. We very much welcome new volunteers – see Section 12 of this Note.

Our volunteers are supported by our Director of Cricket, James Parslow and our Head Coach, Paul Frost – see Section 9 - plus a small number of other paid coaches.

All Age Group Managers, lead Coaches and League Team Managers have a Disclosure and Barring Service (“DBS”) check. Many also have formal cricket coaching qualifications.

Each age group has a parent rep, who helps us pass on key information and requests to the parents in their children’s age group and also pick up any particular feedback and themes that we should be taking account of.

Our Club Safeguarding Officer is Mary Cracknell. Any concerns regarding the operation of the Club or behaviour of an individual, should be reported to Mary - mary.duffy@guidedogs.org.uk. Mary’s contact details are also on the website, on the club notice board and in the Yearbook.

Our deputy safeguarding officer is Claire Way - clairelouway5@gmail.com. A link to the clubs safeguarding policy can be found here.

If you have suggestions for improving how we do things or would like to become more involved in Club activities in other ways, please let us know nmcc.colts@gmail.com.
