Question

Explain what risk management means in terms of sport re-creation

Answer 1

Risk management means to obtain awareness of your club's legal obligations and commitment to quality and safety are critical in today's  sporting environment.

"Risk management is the course of action you take to reduce potential legal liability. It seeks to address potential problems before they occur.  Risk management aims to be pro-active rather than reactive - creating a safer environment and legally safer operational procedures.

A common mistake clubs make is to view risk management as a program in isolation. It is really an ongoing process that should be applied to all your club’s policies and procedures."
