ECB Clubmark Process - Step 2

Actively working towards and Support

Contained within each folder are the support resources you will need to complete the criteria required within each section.

The ‘various’ folder contains additional support resources that provide extra information that will add benefit to your club and the ECB Clubmark process you are going through.

CD ROM – ECB Clubmark Checklists Folder:

The ECB Clubmark Evidence File Checklist will help you determine the areas of ECB Clubmark you are strong in and the areas you may need help and support. You complete the checklist by simply identifying the following for each required criteria:

  • ‘No’ – We do not have this criteria in place, we cannot provide any evidence
  • ‘Working Towards’ – We have something in place but it is not finalised or implemented
  • ‘Yes’ – We can provide evidence of this criteria and demonstrate implementation

When you meet with your Cricket Development Manager they will work through your Evidence File checklist with you providing support and guidance where needed.

The ECB Clubmark Site Visit Checklist details the questions you will be asked during the ECB Clubmark Site Visit assessment (see Step 3).

It is useful to look through the Site Visit checklist prior to your assessment so you are aware of the types of questions you will be asked. This way you can ensure all criteria and questions are met prior to assessment.

There is no time limit on how long a club takes to work towards the criteria set out in ECB Clubmark, each cricket club is different. However all the evidence you provide must be valid/dated within a 12 month period.
