WORKING WITH CHILDREN CHECKS
New Simplified WWCC Policy
In the interests of promoting child safety within the sport of Athletics, the Board of LANSW has implemented a new WWCC policy which will expand the categories of individuals requiring the NSW Government’s WWCC.
From 2022/2023 season onwards, it is a requirement that anyone in child-related roles working or volunteering with children under 18 years obtain a WWCC and provide their Centre with a valid WWCC Number. It is also a requirement to provide this to LANSW when working or volunteering with children under 18 years at LANSW sanctioned activities and events.
Parents/guardians are exempt when spectating or directly assisting with their child’s age group, when their child is present. When parents/guardians volunteer at a club day or association carnival where their child is not in the event, they are required to have a WWCC.
The main elements of the new policy are:
1. Volunteer parents age managing where their own child is not an active participant will now require a WWCC Number to coach or age manage in the Season, regardless of whether they have a child in a different age group
2. All Officials (except those aged under 18 years of age or not a parent as detailed within this policy) who are working at Centres or events, including carnivals and championships, will now require a WWCC. Parent helpers who assist Officials at LANSW events, including Zone and Region Championships, will need to have met their respective Centre-level WWCC requirements.
3. Paid coaches will require a paid WWCC. Note that the NSW Office of the Children’s Guardian (OCG) advises that paid work includes any form of remuneration such as allowances, gift vouchers or other forms of payment
4. Volunteer coaches without a child actively participating in the coaching activity will require a volunteer WWCC.
5. Committee members, Zone and Regional Coordinators taking part in a child-related activity without their child actively participating (ie the same event) are required to obtain a volunteer WWCC.
Scenarios
a. Jane is a volunteer age manager of her daughter’s under 10 age group. Jane does not need the WWCC because she is volunteering in an activity in which her child participates. December 2021 Updated September 2022 Page 2 of 6
b. Joan is a volunteer age manager of her daughter’s under 10 age group, and is an official at a Championship carnival. Unfortunately, Jane’s daughter is either not competing that weekend or not taking part in the event Jane is officiating at. Jane is required to have a WWCC because she is volunteering in an activity in which her child is not participating.
c. Dakota is a parent who is assisting her son’s under 17 age group raking a sand pit on a club day where her son is actually participating in the same event that involves the sand pit. Dakota does not need the WWCC because she is volunteering in an activity in which her child is participating.
d. Jeff is a volunteer age manager for his daughter’s under 15 age group. He also coaches sprints at the same Centre, which his daughter does not participate in. Jeff needs the WWCC because he coaches a team/activity that does not include his daughter.
e. Marty coaches athletes in the senior club that are 20 year olds. Marty does not need the Check as over 20s are not children.
f. Jacob is a Zone coordinator. If Jacob has no interaction with children, then he is not required to have a WWCC, but if he participates in any interaction, such as medal presentation, he requires a WWCC.
g. Sarah works in the canteen or cooks on the BBQ. Her tasks do not place her in direct one on one contact with children. Sarah does not need a WWCC
