CHILDREN AT CLUB TRAINING
Due to undesirable behaviour by some unsupervised children during training, disrupting classes by running on to the training area during classes and
making unwanted advances towards other members' dogs the committee has agreed a club policy that all children must be directly supervised whilst at the club.
Please ensure that any children accompanying you to training are asked to behave appropriately.
