The procedures apply to anyone in football whether in a paid or voluntary capacity, for example: - Volunteers in Clubs, referees, club officials, helpers on club tours, football coaches and medical staff.

The Football Association will consider, having taken advice, whether anyone who has previous criminal conviction or caution for offences related to the abuse of children or young people, violence or any sexual offences should be excluded from working with children and young people. This position is re-inforced by U.K. Legislation and guidance.
