Clifton Rugby Football Club promotes the core values of Rugby Union:

• Teamwork
• Respect
• Enjoyment
• Discipline
• Sportsmanship

Clifton Rugby Football Club (RFC), its Officers, Coaches and Managers, acknowledge the personal dignity and rights of children, towards whom they have a special responsibility and a duty of care.

Clifton RFC will do everything possible to provide a safe environment for children and young people while they are in our care. If there is any reason to suspect neglect or that abuse has taken place, Clifton RFC will report concerns to the appropriate authority.

The Club Safeguarding Policy and related documents are published on the club website and are available on the Minis & Juniors Section noticeboard in the clubhouse.

If you have concerns about any issues related to the safety of young people at Clifton RFC then please contact the Club Safeguarding Officer Russ Delaney or a member of the Safeguarding Team.
