Safeguarding

Built for youth football, with safeguarding in mind.

ScoutLink is built for U7 to U16 grassroots football, so player visibility, scout access and interest workflows must stay safe, structured and appropriate.

Scouts and adult users must be verified before access is granted. ScoutLink does not allow direct adult-to-child recruitment messaging through the platform. Player visibility, profile access and interest workflows are designed to remain coach, club, school or guardian mediated.

Coach-led evidence

Player profiles should be created and managed by authorised adults, clubs, schools or approved programmes.

Verified scout access

Scout access is request-based and can be reviewed, restricted or removed where concerns arise.

Controlled visibility

Player data should be accessed through product workflows, not scraped, exported or shared without permission.
