Member Protection Officers

Isaac and his merry mods?

Try installing a member protection officer, see if that works?

Urinate to the wind?

Otherwise a shoulder and a big hanky.

There is no confusion from my understanding. As stated an MPO would put a face to the endorsed Code of Conduct that in basketball is a lovely attired hens tooth.

My points are:

A passive approach to date is not effective.

A more active approach has been taken in other states.

We initiate thes practices for prevention and protection for all participants and the betterment of the sport.

Therefore I strongly disagree with tnt that "Member Protection Officer has nothing to do with child protection" mate, its in the title!!!!

We are talking about an ombudsman type position here that would need authority to investigate and act. This Authority would have to come from a higher authority that the sport itself otherwise the end effect will equal window dressing.
Perhaps good way to start would be to introduce a formal (police)vetting system similar to some other states that then qualifies by issue of a card for an adult to be involved with junior activities (blue card in Qld.) No Card, no gig.

I am not aware of any system in place for vetting spectators other than the code of conduct which has as many teeth as the standard laying hen.

I was just thinking with all the anonymous bagging of "my club versus your club" in these recent threads (exemplified by 138946), without a club actually being mentioned... Have the people outright bagging eachother under random names considered they may be from the same club?

That would be quite amusing. Or maybe they know eachother and have brought their personal arguement here and I don't know s**t.
