Garda Vetting
Everything starts with and is subject to the completion of the Garda Vetting. The purpose of this is for the Garda to carry out a background check on you as a new coach to ensure the continued protection of our members. You can appreciate how important this is to us and Kilshanvey United appreciates your cooperation in completing this step.

Please go to this link 
Create an FAI log in and complete your registration. 
Go to Courses section and search for "Garda Vetting". 

• You will need two pieces of ID, a licence and Passport or equivalent.
• ID Validation document signed by a senior member of Kilshanvey United, or An Garda Siochana.
• Proof of address, utility bill etc.

Keep an eye on your email and respond to the mails as requested. You will be asked to fill details of all previous addresses. This allows the Garda to check other areas during their review. The better the information, the faster the approval.
A reference letter from a previous club can also be given the Kilshanvey, but the Garda Vetting must be completed for Kilshanvey united. This is normal.

2.

Child Safe Guarding
All Kilshanvey Coaches must complete Child Safe Guarding 1 at a minimum. If you have completed this course for another Sport Ireland affiliated group, then this can be accepted by Kilshanvey United.
Otherwise, if you have completed your Garda Vetting, search "Child Safe Guarding" under "Courses" in your FAI Profile, or contact Kilshanvey Child Welfare for support.

3.

Register as a Kilshanvey United Coach
Go to Coach/Volunteer page, add your completed Garda Vetting & Child Safe Guarding certs, along with some other information and the registration will be complete! Again we understand the hassle these steps can cause, but protecting our members is NUMBER 1 to Kilshanvey United!
