Instructor Agreements 

If your club works with a coach or instructor, we recommend having a signed agreement. This sets the terms of their contract, gives you guidelines to follow and allows us to support your club if anything goes wrong! 

Please get your coach or instructor to fill this out, even if they are voluntary/unpaid. Please send a copy back with the instructor details (name, contact number, email, qualification copies) to sport@su.plymouth.ac.uk.

All instructors/coaches must abide by the Coaching Code of Conduct. Please ensure this is sent to and read by your coach/instructor.

Inventory

At the end of each year, your committee must complete an inventory of all kit. This includes Kit that is stored on campus, off site at training venues, and kit stored in student accommodation. Please ensure you add the value of any kit, and make sure you list where this is stored. 

This is a mandatory AGM document, as we need to review our insurance policy over summer to ensure all kit is apporpriately ensured. These must be sent with other AGM paperwork to sport@su.plymouth.ac.uk.

Booking the sports hall, studio or squash courts can all be done in person. You can also book online by following this link - https://www.upsu.com/gym/
