Working With Children Check

Junior Racing

Geelong Mountain Bike Club is a childsafe club.  It is important to us to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for young people, and we are constantly assessing our operations to ensure we are fulfilling our responsibilities under the AusCycling Safeguarding Children and Young People Policy.

We have been working toward ensuring all our volunteers have a Working With Children Check (WWCC), and Service Victoria has just made this a little easier for us all. You are now able to download your WWCC to your digital wallet. The link to the instructions is below.

From the Winter race season, we will be asking all volunteers at races where U18 are present to show their WWCC. 

This will include marshals, first aiders, photographers, timing and race/event coordination.

Please refer to the GMBC Juniors page for full information.

Remember GMBC is a 100% volunteer run organisation, so even if you can only spare a little time here and there – please go and get your WWCC for free and be ready to support us when your schedule permits.
