This document is a checklist guide designed for pre-game inspections to identify safety concerns and record actions on match day. It outlines the critical safety aspects that need to be inspected, including weather conditions, playing surfaces, and facilities. The checklist serves as a visual inspection tool, emphasizing the importance of addressing any safety concerns before the game commences. It details various actions that can be taken to mitigate risks, such as using caution signs, removing hazards, or postponing the game if necessary. The document also stresses the duty of care owed by clubs to players, spectators, and volunteers, highlighting the legal implications of negligence if safety concerns are not adequately addressed. Additionally, it provides guidance on the proper completion and storage of the checklist, recommending that original checklists be retained for a minimum of seven years for future reference. This ensures that clubs can demonstrate compliance with safety protocols and protect themselves legally.
