How to run a sports camp – legally speaking
Journal Title: Journal of Human Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
Camps are a great way to keep kids active throughout the summer and to make money for the program sponsoring them. Planning is needed for a sports camp to be safe for both the camp personnel and the athletes, and to minimize legal negligence. Having a risk management plan in place is important to insure that everyone is aware of the risks of participating. Background checks on camp personnel help ensure the camp leaders and coaches do not have a criminal background. It is important to inspect the facilities/equipment to make sure they are safe to use. Athletic trainers help with injuries that may occur with participation. Supervisors make sure that everyone is accounted for and camp rules help the campers behave in an appropriate manner. When planning activities, it is important to look at the skill level of the athletes. If all of these areas are covered, camps should be legally protected if an issue were to arise.
