The problem

Safeguarding admin is drowning club volunteers

Clubs run on goodwill, not back-office teams. Yet the duty of care for hundreds of children rests on paperwork that paper and email were never built to handle.

Consent lives in inboxes

Permission slips get lost in group emails and WhatsApp. Nobody has a single, reliable view of who has actually said yes.

The admin falls on volunteers

Chasing forms, retyping details and filing paper eats the evenings of the very people who volunteer to coach and care.

Compliance is hard to prove

When a parent, county body or auditor asks, “can you show this child’s consent?” — the answer is often a frantic search.

One platform · every sport

Built for the sport your club actually plays

Football or netball, hockey or tennis — SportConsent doesn’t mind what the game is. Wherever there are junior participants and parents, the consent and safeguarding work exactly the same.

Sport-agnostic by design — the same consent and safeguarding, whatever the game

How it works

From paper chase to proof in three steps

No setup, no software to install. Most clubs are sending their first consent requests the same day they sign up.

1

Import your register

Upload a spreadsheet or add participants by hand. Teams, age groups and parent contacts land in one organised register.

2

Request consent once

Send a single parental consent that covers every activity your organisation runs. Parents complete it on their phone in under a minute — no login, no app.

3

Track, renew and prove

Watch consents arrive live, get automatic reminders when the 12-month consent is due to renew and GDPR turning-18 alerts, and export an auditable record whenever you need it.

Features

Everything a club needs to run consent properly

Five connected tools that replace the forms, the spreadsheets and the group emails — without adding another job to anyone’s evening.

Participant register

One organised home for every participant

Teams, age groups, parent contacts and consent status — all in a single register you can actually trust. Filter, search and export in seconds.

Why clubs trust us

Credibility built into the product

Beyond that endorsement, trust is designed into SportConsent from the ground up. Here is exactly how it earns yours.

UK GDPR built in

Consent, retention and special-category data handling are designed into the product — not bolted on. Lawful basis and audit are the default.

Full audit trail

Every consent and safeguarding action is timestamped on an immutable log you can export, so duty of care is always provable.

UK-hosted & encrypted

Data is hosted in the UK and encrypted in transit and at rest. Children’s information stays protected and in the right jurisdiction.

Built for junior sport

Not a generic form tool. Age groups, guardians, medical notes and turning-18 rules are first-class — because that is all this platform does.

Safeguarding-first

Designed alongside welfare officers around real club workflows, so the people responsible for children have the record they need, fast.

Independent by design

One product, one purpose. SportConsent exists to make consent and safeguarding provable — nothing is sold on the back of your data.

SportConsent is operated by SentinelHQ Ltd, and built by the safeguarding-technology team behind the endorsement above. We are onboarding sports clubs now.

Endorsement

Built by the team behind CountyConsent

SportConsent applies the same safeguarding and parental-consent model we built for county golf. Here is what Durham County Golf Union’s junior safeguarding chair said about that work on CountyConsent.

CountyConsent

Durham County Golf Union has benefited enormously from working with Kevin Jager in the development and implementation of CountyConsent.

Kevin took an initial concept and, through his expertise, innovation and commitment, developed a comprehensive digital safeguarding and parental consent system that has transformed our processes. The platform has significantly reduced administration, improved access to critical safeguarding information and strengthened our ability to support young and vulnerable participants effectively.

Throughout the project, Kevin demonstrated a clear understanding of our requirements and worked collaboratively to ensure the system met the needs of the organisation. His professionalism, responsiveness and technical knowledge were outstanding.

CountyConsent has exceeded our expectations and provides a model that could be successfully adopted across many sports and activities. We are grateful for Kevin’s contribution and would confidently recommend his services to other organisations seeking innovative digital solutions.

FAQ

Questions clubs ask us

Once a year. A single parental consent covers every activity your organisation runs — training, matches, tours and socials — and lasts 12 months. SportConsent tracks the expiry for you and prompts for renewal automatically, so you are never chasing a permission slip for individual fixtures.

No. Consent requests arrive by email and open on any phone or computer. A parent taps through the form and submits — there is no app to install and no password to remember.

Yes. It is deliberately sport-agnostic. Football, rugby, cricket, netball, swimming, athletics — anywhere a club manages junior participants and needs parental consent and safeguarding records, SportConsent fits.

Consent is captured with a clear lawful basis and a full audit trail. The platform tracks retention automatically, including alerting you before a child turns 18 so records are re-consented or archived correctly. Special-category data such as medical notes is handled with appropriate restrictions.

Data is hosted in the UK and encrypted in transit and at rest. SportConsent is operated by SentinelHQ Ltd, and we do not sell or share your data.

Yes. Club admins, team managers and safeguarding officers can each have access, with the audit trail recording who did what and when.

Small clubs use SportConsent free — up to 25 participants and one team. Club is £30/month for unlimited participants, teams and club admin tools. County bodies and associations get a tailored Association plan — talk to us.
