Before training, matches or other cricket activities begin, a quick check of the playing and surrounding areas helps identify hazards and keep everyone safe.
Mackie Cricket Club asks coaches, team managers and other activity leaders to complete a simple pre-activity safety check before play gets underway.
Before you start
- Check the playing surface and surrounding areas for hazards
- Check nets, equipment and facilities being used.
- Remove or address any hazards where it is safe to do so.
- If a hazard cannot be resolved, keep people away from the affected area and report it.
- Only commence the activity when the area is safe to use.
Pre-Activity Risk Assessment Guide
We have prepared a simple one-page guide for coaches, team managers and activity leaders. Keep a copy handy at training and on match days as a reminder of the checks to complete before cricket activities begin.
