Report a Hazard, Incident, or Near Miss
Full forms: H&S Forms & Tools Manual. This page helps you pick the right one and know what to have ready.
Which One Do I Fill Out?
Hazard Report
Something could cause harm, but hasn’t yet — e.g. a damaged target stand, a trip hazard, worn equipment.
Near Miss Report
Something happened that could have caused harm, but didn’t — e.g. an arrow landed close to someone, a piece of equipment nearly failed.
Incident Report
Something happened and someone was hurt, or property was damaged.
Observation Report
A general safety observation worth noting — not urgent, not necessarily a hazard, just something worth recording for the club’s awareness.
Not sure which one applies? Fill in whichever feels closest — any report is better than none, and it can always be reclassified by whoever reviews it.
What to Have Ready
- Your name and role (member, visitor/guest, or other).
- Date, time, and location (which range, Club Day, session, or event).
- What happened or what you observed, in your own words.
- Who else was involved or nearby.
- Any initial action already taken.
- Photos, if you have any and it’s safe to take them.
How to Submit
- Complete the form below.
- Completion will submit it to the club committee for follow on action.
- If in doubt or the situation is urgent, see the Emergency — What To Do page first.
Reporting isn’t about blame — it’s how the club catches small problems before they become big ones. If something felt off, it’s worth writing down.
