Member Protection
Queensland Cricket is committed to ensuring that every person involved in cricket is treated with respect and dignity, is safe and protected from abuse and that the environment is a consistent and nurturing on for all players and volunteers. We seek to prevent all forms of harassment, discrimination and abuse and promote positive values and behaviours. Cricket should not tolerate inappropriate or unlawful behaviour.
Queensland Cricket provides the following Member Protection Policy Template to Clubs and Associations to assist in development of their own policies for the protection of their participants. You can also find the Queensland Cricket Member Protection Policy here.
