Clydesdale Cricket Club has achieved "TOPClub Bronze" status
What is TopClub?
TOPClub is for all clubs which are committed to junior development. It has been specifically designed to meet the needs of all Scotland's cricket clubs, big and small, and is relevant to clubs irrespective of whether they have a long-established junior section or if they are just starting out. CricketScotland have taken examples of good practice from both 'Clubmark'-type accreditation schemes and development programmes from many other sports, and has added cricket and Scottish-specific elements to the mix and combined them to create TOPClub. The programme has been created on the principle that "good practice" and "good performance" are not mutually exclusive, but part of the same integrated path to a prosperous club.
Objectives and key areas
- To provide a nationally-recognised form of accreditation.
- To assist clubs in developing structures, programmes and people, which will allow them to fulfil their potential and aspire towards excellence in offering sporting opportunities to young people in their community.
- To assist clubs in implementing policies and procedures which ensure they are recognised as a well-run organisation offering a safe, effective and child-friendly environment to their members .
