SAFEGUARDING
We would like to give confidence to our supporters and our eSports players that we take safeguarding and the welfare of our people – particularly children – very seriously.
Whilst online gaming has many positive attributes associated to its ability to provide engagement, there are potential risks attached including cyber bullying and addiction. Whilst we encourage online communication between our players and their opponents, we also stress that players should only do so if they feel comfortable. In the strictest form, we advise players against arranging to meet up with their fellow players.
If online gaming causes a player distress or if parents have any concerns, you can contact marketing@theredimps.com
