Messages and keeping under-18s safe
How messaging works with under-18s, and what parents control.
- Coaches can't message an under-18 one to one in the app. Messages go to the squad, and a parent is always included.
- Under-16s have no login, so messages about them go to their parents.
- A parent can turn their child's messages off from Consent and privacy.
- Concerns go privately to the club's Children's Officer and Designated Liaison Person. See Reporting a concern.
