Why Club Mark at Ballinhassig AFC?
-
Structure for Success: As a grassroot club run by volunteers, establishing a clear and effective structure is essential for us. Club Mark ensures Ballinhassig AFC is heading in the right direction, both on and off the pitch.
-
Qualified Coaching: We are trying to make sure every player in our club will be coached by individuals with the appropriate qualifications, fostering a sense of safety and belonging.
-
Reassurance: Our certification should give new members and new volunteers peace of mind and reassurance that Ballinhassig AFC is a club committed to doing things the right way.
-
Recognition for Unsung Heroes: we need to celebrate the invaluable contributions of key club members - our committee, our coaches, and anyone helping with our facility and our club – these are the people who keep your club running smoothly.
- Future-Proofing: By adopting Club Mark, we are setting Ballinhassig AFC up for future success in the game. Having a strong club development plan will help us to be more sustainable, resilient and built to last.
Please support Marie and everyone involved in this super initiative. Our priority for the start of this season is to ensure that anyone helping to coach in our club is up to date with their Gardai Vetting Certification - this is a mandatory requirement at our club.
