    Frequently Asked

    Does ClubRovia process vetting applications with the NVB?▾

    No. Applications go through your NGB or directly to the National Vetting Bureau. ClubRovia is the system of record that tracks, alerts on, and audits the process.

    Who can see vetting status?▾

    Only the Children's Officer, DLP and authorised committee roles you designate. Vetting numbers are masked by default and access is logged.

    What happens if a coach's vetting expires?▾

    They're immediately flagged red on the compliance dashboard and automatically blocked from being assigned to minor groups until renewed.

    Is this compliant with Irish legislation?▾

    ClubRovia is designed around the National Vetting Bureau Acts 2012–2016, the Children First Act 2015 and Sport Ireland's safeguarding code. The audit trail is built to be defensible in inspection.
