COVID-19 Risk Assessment Form Template

 

This is a draft template of a generic Risk Assessment Form for dealing with the current Covid-19 situation. It is not likely to cover all scenarios and each affiliated club should consider their own unique circumstances. The ‘potential hazards’ and ‘actions to treat risk’ listed are given as examples only. We strongly advise BCGBA affiliated clubs to refer to the latest Government guidance and our sport-specific guidance before conducting their own risk assessments. Details have been circulated directly to all affiliated clubs via County Associations and linked on the BCGBA website
