Ilford Cricket Club
ECB Clubmark Accreditation
Ilford Cricket Club was awarded with the ECB Clubmark accreditation by demonstrating that they are fully equipped in every sense to look after youngsters and promote cricket to the youth of the community.
To comply with Clubmark regulations we have a Child Welfare Officer (Murali Nair) and we ensure that sufficient qualified coaches and supplementary helpers are always available to look after all of our colts.
All of our coaches and helpers have undergone Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks and the coaches have taken first aid courses in addition to their cricket coaching courses.

ECB Clubmark is an accreditation scheme for cricket clubs and is licensed from Sport England as part of their wider Clubmark scheme.
ECB Clubmark shows that a club is sustainable, well run and provides the right environment for its members. Clubmark accreditation also means your club is recognised as a safe, rewarding and fulfilling place for participants of all ages, as well as assuring parents and carers that they are choosing the right option for their young people
Accreditation lasts for 3 years at which point the club will complete a re-accreditation exercise. In the intervening 2 years there is a requirement to complete an annual health check to maintain accreditation.
