There is a new Social Media Declaration Form included in Club Membership. The purpose of this is to deal with privacy and consent issues to allow use of Frogbox Internet Video coverage of QSDCA cricket matches. There are some important issues to consider which you can read about here. (https://qsdca.com.au/qsdca-frogbox-acquired/)

Club admins may need to consider the implications of the Social Media Declaration carefully. If you have questions please get in touch with me or Bruce.
