INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY COMPLAINTS MANAGEMENT
Effective December 19, 2018 WCL has commissioned the Sport Law & Strategy Group (SLSG), to act as an independent third party to receive complaints on its behalf, with the authority to appoint a neutral independent panel, until such time as WCL is in a position to offer a more permanent solution. The substantive aspects of WCL’s Discipline Policy and Appeal Policy will remain. However, in order to ensure procedural fairness for all parties, the procedural aspects of these Policies may be modified. Should this be the case, the modified procedures will be published on WCL’s website and a notice will be sent to WCL’s membership. Please direct inquiries to SLSG at: [email protected]
