Safety

Bangor Barden Ridge Comets Cricket Club is committed to providing a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone involved in our club. That includes our junior players, their families, our volunteers, coaches and officials.

OUR COMMITMENT

We expect everyone at the club to treat others with respect, on and off the field. Bullying, harassment, discrimination and abuse of any kind are not tolerated. This applies equally to players, parents, spectators, coaches and committee members.

The club operates under the member protection and safeguarding policies of Cricket Australia, alongside our own codes of conduct.
