Orpington Cricket Club – Development
CLUBMARK
|
I am pleased to announce that Orpington Cricket Club has been awarded the Club-Mark accreditation. Over the last two years we have been working behind the scenes to meet the stringent criteria laid down by both Sport England and the ECB.
Club-Mark is an official Sport England accreditation that recognises the values and commitments made by sports clubs through developing high quality, welcoming environments for young participants. |

Orpington CC was asked to demonstrate evidence of implanting procedures and practices across four themes:
- Duty of care and safeguarding children
- The cricket programme
- Sports equity and ethics
- Club management
Through the hard work of the club committee we have been able to complete this process and become one of only fifty three clubs in the county to have this prestigious mark.
As well as Club-mark Orpington has been awarded Focus club status, which means that we fully support:
- Focus club community programme
- Workforce development
- Player development
- Facility development
- Competitions development
- A chance to shine programme
In having both these accreditations we are proving that we are forward thinking safe environment for the enjoyment of cricket for all. We will now be able to apply for new funding that before would not have been available to us.
