Safeguarding Combat Sport Communities with British Wrestling

British Wrestling has been utilizing JustGo’s membership management system since 2018. As a contact combat sport, the NGB necessitates stringent governance and safeguarding measures.
One example is, in addition to holding the requisite coaching qualifications, coaches are required to hold up-to-date and valid first aid, safeguarding training, background check certification and active membership.
This challenge is addressed via a Digital Coach License – where all qualifications are consolidated into a singular scannable credential. Using this technology, the License is available only if everything remains valid. If not, it is invalidated and all relevant parties are notified accordingly.
These requirements are checked and updated in real-time, ensuring that British Wrestling maintains the safety of its sport and participants consistently.

Solution
Challenge
Every coach had to satisfy a variety of criteria to coach and access the wrestling mat at competitions. Checking each criteria manually was a tedious process.
Solution
Through Digital Passes, JustGo streamlines all the criteria into a single credential, which is dynamically validated via a simple on-spot QR code scan (e.g. Coach License).
Challenge
British Wrestling uses a custom competition management software, which verifies the membership status of competitors during events.
Solution
JustGo’s API is highly configurable, allowing for real-time seamless communication with 3rd party software to share essential information (e.g. membership status).
Challenge
The competition software also needs to verify if a member is associated with a club, in order to ensure that results are reported appropriately.
Solution
JustGo checks for club affiliation in real-time, dynamically updating the information and seamlessly communicating it with the software.
Challenge
Given its diverse nature, British Wrestling needs to collect certain data to keep its community inclusive.
Solution
As standard, demographic information can be mandated and anonymized, thus simplifying data collection through JustGo’s Field Management.
