Shouldn't all staff who have to 'marshall' them also have to be vetted? What about the officials from those nations as well. As they are in the UK, presumably they have to obey the UKs working-with-children laws?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-85988690231722525632010-05-12T15:44:59.888+01:002010-05-12T15:44:59.888+01:00I think the issue is that there are an awful lot m...I think the issue is that there are an awful lot more adults involved in the Games than Wimbeledon, as such all the adults would have to be vetted (at a nice little cost) etc.Ken Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13568488818950912374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-61646186934886174342010-05-12T12:42:32.581+01:002010-05-12T12:42:32.581+01:00And what about the ball boys and ball girls at Wim...And what about the ball boys and ball girls at Wimbledon?Julius Caesarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-25499724472685764352010-05-12T12:36:56.101+01:002010-05-12T12:36:56.101+01:00Ken,
