Free Course on Child Protection for Sports and Leisure Leaders in Navarre
A free course on child protection has been organised in Pamplona. It is aimed at monitors and sports staff from the Navarre region.
The training focuses on protecting children during leisure and sports activities. Many children take part in clubs, camps and sports clubs across Navarre. People who lead these activities play an important role in keeping children safe.
Organisers hope the course will give monitors and sports workers the knowledge they need to spot and prevent problems. The course covers how to recognise risks and how to act when a child needs protection.
Because the course is free, it is open to a wide range of people working with children in Navarre, including sports coaches and leisure group leaders. The aim is to raise awareness about child safety across the sector.
The event was reported by the Navarre edition of a local newspaper in October 2026. It highlights growing attention to child welfare in sports and leisure settings in the region.
Training like this is becoming more common as sports organisations try to improve safeguarding practices for young participants. Monitors often spend many hours with children, so proper preparation is considered essential.
