Community Clubs: Every community club must have a coach at every session who meets the following minimum deployment requirements in order for insurance to be valid. Clubs who do not have a coach who meets minimum deployment requirements may not hold sessions until this requirement is met.

Schools, Colleges, Universities & Youth Clubs: Where insurance is provided directly by the school or youth club, it is strongly recommended that staff members delivering of teaching dodgeball meet the following requirements. Where an external contractor is used (e.g. sports coaching company), it is strongly recommended that schools only allow those who meet the following minimum deployment requirements coach or teach dodgeball-related activity.
