For help in encouraging the positive involvement of parents and other spectators, youth sports clubs and organisations may wish to take a look at the following resources.
Social media best practice
There are several ways in which sports organisations and activity providers can reduce the risk of harm to children and young people whilst using social media platforms to communicate.
Using images of young people for publication, promotion or coaching
Sports organisations and clubs benefit from using images of young participants to promote and celebrate activities, events and competitions.
A young athlete on the talent pathway will undoubtedly experience change and challenges, which may make them feel under pressure at times – the pressure to succeed, to be selected and to meet their own expectations as well as the expectations of those around them.
