Portlaoise AFC is committed to providing a safe, respectful and enjoyable football environment for every child and young person involved in the club.

All coaches, managers, volunteers, parents and players are expected to follow the club’s codes of conduct and the safeguarding requirements applying to grassroots football.

ClubZap is the club’s official platform for team notices and routine communications. Communications involving underage players must follow the club’s safeguarding arrangements and include appropriate adult oversight.

Any safeguarding or welfare concern should be raised promptly through the appropriate club welfare channel. If you are unsure who to contact, email pafcsecretary@gmail.com and your query will be directed to the correct person.

Relevant safeguarding documents, codes of conduct and club policies will be made available through the Club Policies section of this website.
