Recognising the need for our sport to be conducted in a safe and controlled environment, Cricket Ireland are running two First Aid and Child Protection courses in the Leinster region. It is essential that anyone involved in cricket coaching has up-to-date Child Protection and First Aid Certificates, in addition to a Garda Vetting Certificate/Access N.I. Certificate.


All of these are pre-requisites for anyone to attend and complete a Coaching Course to be run in future, and are necessary to become members of the ECB Coaches Association, which will give coaches full insurance and public liability up till £5,000,000.00, in addition to providing coaches with helpful DVDs, training resources and methods, newsletters and the opportunity to attend superb coaching conferences. It is Cricket Ireland’s vision that EVERY Coach in Ireland has access to the WORLD LEADING Coaching Association.

There are the following courses available:

Child Protection/Code Of Ethics:

27/03 – North County Cricket Club 1000-1400

10/04 – Kings Hospital School 1000-1400

First Aid:

10/04 – Kings Hospital School 1430-1830
