  6. Safety - University Safety Office The University Safety Office has an involvement with sports clubs with respect to: • Club Safety Policy Documents • Club Insurance Matters • Large Event Planning

  7. Club Safety Policy Documents • All sports clubs are required to submit a Club Safety Statement to the Safety Office for approval prior to submission to the University insurers. • A template is provided to all clubs. (see www.ucd.ie/sport) • For most clubs this will be a relatively simple document to complete.

  8. Club Safety Policy Documents • An evening information session has been arranged to aid club personnel in completing these templates. (Wednesday 18th Sept. @ 6p.m. Theatre R, Arts Building). • Grant payments will only be paid to clubs when their safety document is approved by the Safety Office.

  9. Club Safety Policy Documents • Some clubs by their nature will be required to complete a more detailed Safety Statement. • This is due to the risks associated with the activities of these clubs. • It is recommended that if necessary these ‘higher risk’ clubs contact the Safety Office directly for assistance in this regard.

  10. Club Safety Policy Document Higher Risk Clubs • Ladies Boat • Men’s Boat • Canoe • Caving & Potholing • Mountaineering • Kite • Orienteering • Rifle • Sailing • Sub Aqua • Surf • Windsurfing

  11. Club Insurance • Public Liability Insurance • €6.35 million for affiliated UCD Clubs. • This type of insurance covers the clubs and the club members if they are sued for any loss or damage that their activities cause to a third party. It also extends to those coaches who are engaged by clubs and who are paid via the AUC & Mazars.

  12. Club Insurance • Employers Liability Insurance • €13m million for affiliated UCD Clubs. • This type of insurance covers the clubs and the club members in the event that they are sued by club employees e.g. those coaches that are engaged by clubs and who are paid via the AUC & Mazars are designated as club employees and are covered by this insurance.

  13. Club Insurance • Personal Accident Insurance • Covers UCD sports clubs members engaged in sporting activities with their UCD clubs. • Medical expenses maximum pay out of €5,000 to any person in any year (excess €500). • Dental expenses up to €1,500 (excess €500). • Up to six physiotherapy visits per year (excess €500). • Does not cover loss of earnings. • Various payments for serious injury

  14. Club Insurance • Equipment Insurance • Equipment insurance needs to be in place for a number of clubs due to the value of their equipment e.g. Boat, Sub-Aqua, Sailing, etc. • Important that an up to date inventory is submitted to the AUC every year.

  15. Club Insurance • Third Party Professional Insurance • Coaches who are engaged directly by clubs, without payment via the AUC & Mazars, are deemed as third party contractors and must have their own insurance, to be submitted to the AUC for approval. They are not covered by the AUC policies. • They should also be qualified and should maintain their own affiliation to the respective sports governing body. • Evidence of current qualification and membership should be submitted.

  16. Large Event Planning • Where hosting large events the club may need additional insurance. • In addition, the Club will be required to submit full details of the event (an event plan) in writing to the University Safety Office for review. • Larger events may also require an event management plan. • You are advised to contact the Safety Office as early as possible when planning large events.

  17. Accident Reporting • All accidents involving club members or third parties must be reported to UCD Safety Office on the appropriate form which can be obtained from the UCD Sport reception. • Similarly all potential equipment losses must be reported to the Safety Office if an insurance claim is likely.

  18. Safety Q & A

  19. Communications Ms. Lisa Flannery UCD Marketing Manager

  20. Sports Inclusion Mr. Mark Barry Sports Development Officer, Irish Wheelchair Association. Ms. Phena O’Connor Sports Inclusion Disability Officer DLR, LSP.

  21. Event Management Mr. Garry Ryan RYCOM

  22. Clubs Automation of Membership 11 September 2013 Mark Lande Chief Applications Officer UCD IT Services mark.lande@ucd.ie

  23. Recording of Membership For 2013/14 continuing the online method of recording membership of Clubs & Societies. Using this system enables you to: • Eliminate current paper membership records. • Ensure a single accurate database of membership is maintained with access to all relevant parties. • Automatically email all members at one time.

  24. The Club Membership screen appears in SISWeb under “Campus Services” Click to see existing members

  25. Click to see existing members of the club Option to download to Excel You do not need to record email addresses, mobile numbers or emergency contact information

  26. Adding a new member is easy ... • Just enter the member based on: • (1)Their student number (recommended) • Their name • Their email address • And click “Check Name” • If you wish – assign to teams

  27. Copying members from last year Tick the students (max 20) that you want to copy each time ... then Click “Copy to Current Year”

  28. How the system works • AUC Executive Secretary has setup each club and nominates a person to maintain the club membership. • It is mandatory that all members are recorded in the system so that they are insured for club activities. • Only those who have paid are to be recorded on the system.

  29. Email Members of the Club

  30. Tips for Emailing • Choose your “Subject” carefully – research shows that it (along with the name of the sender) determines whether a person reads an email. • Avoid long, complex emails – people don’t read them • Graphics in emails are not shown to 80% of your audience • To many links to outside UCD often cause Google mail to think it is spam. • Attachments must be send via links to documents rather than attachments.

  31. Security of Information is Critical The security of your personal information contained in the membership records is critical. Therefore, • Access is granted to named individuals only. • All use of the system is tracked. • Mobile numbers and emergency contact information can only be updated by the student themselves. • Be very careful where you store any downloads of personal information – in particular avoid storing it on USB keys. Better still – don’t download it.

  32. Support If you run into a problem using the system then contact the AUC Executive Secretary. If you have a suggestion for how to make the system better for your club ... then email me!
