Hampton Wick Royal Cricket Club has held ECB Clubmark certification since 2009. Clubmark is the only national cross sports quality accreditation scheme for clubs with junior sections. It is built around a set of core criteria which ensure that accredited clubs operate to a set of consistent, accepted and adopted minimum operating standards. The club renewed its certification in 2019.
Sport England recognises and values the commitment made by sports clubs to develop high quality, welcoming environments for young participants. The development of clubs that encourage young people to take-up sport, improve their talents and give them the option to initiate and maintain life-long participation in sport is an essential part of our work to support the sporting infrastructure in England.
The Clubmark accreditation scheme is fully integrated with Safe Hands, the ECB’s welfare of young people in cricket policy.
As part of our commitment and adherence to the Clubmark initiative, we publish our club development plan annually. See the latest version our 5 year plan and annual progress here
