Our Game Our Code County Children’s Officer Training and Information Workshop

The Camogie Association are holding a training day for all County Children’s Officers plus one nominated person from each county to attend a workshop on the new Joint Code of Ethics and Good Practice entitled Our Game Our Code. This has been launched and published for use by all Gaelic Games bodies.

This is a momentous occasion for all who work with underage players and vulnerable adults in our respective Associations. This Code brings together the collective good practice experiences of our Associations while also recognising the legislative, organisational and statutory guidance that governs our work with young people and children.
It is important that club and county personnel are made aware of the contents of Our Games Our Code. It is only by being aware that we can be fully compliant with rule 25 of An Teoraí Oifigiúil. The start of the season is the best time to put in place all the procedures that are required under the code.
The Our Game Our Code workshop for Camogie County Children’s Officers and one nominated individual from each county will take place on;
Sat February 16^th Venue:  Croke Park, Dublin
·         Registration: 10am
