Last week we hosted Club Update 8, our regular online meeting that is open to all club and team officials working in grassroots football. 

The aim of our Club Update meetings is to discuss key issues affecting grassroots football, identify and share best practice, and discuss a specific club development area of focus during every meeting.

For our latest Club Update, Sheffield & Hallamshire County FA staff Tom Measham and Claire MacRory were joined by DS Carly Booth, Family Liaison Officer and Welfare Support Officer for South Yorkshire Police.

The topic for this meeting was around listening to the voice of young people and the main development areas covered in the meeting were:

• Understanding the value of listening to the voice of young people
• The relationship between listening and safeguarding 
• How to embed listening to the voice of young people within your club
