Safeguarding

• All mentoring is parent-led. A guardian creates and manages every family account.
• Mentors are vetted before working with athletes and complete safeguarding orientation before joining the platform.
• Written mentor notes and submissions are only visible to authorised staff and the family.
• We follow current UK safeguarding good practice for youth sport and adapt policies as guidance evolves.

All athlete-facing communication happens inside the Champions Mentality platform. Mentors do not exchange private phone numbers, personal social media handles, or off-platform messages with athletes. Group and 1:1 sessions, where offered, are scheduled through the platform with parents informed.

If you have any concern about an athlete's safety or wellbeing — however small — please tell us immediately. You will always be taken seriously.
