Keep Sport Safe, Smart, and Secure
More ways to protect participants and coaches while fostering a positive sport culture:
• Engage in Safe Sport training
• Ensure your organization has taken the RCM Pledge
• Support your organization by having key policies, like a Travel Policy, Code of Conduct,
Screening Policy Template, and see that these are current and enforced
• Ensure that all coaches and volunteers are appropriately screened
• Encourage coaches and volunteers to take training, such as NCCP Make Ethical Decisions, Commit To Kids, Respect in Sport, Mental Health in Sport, and NCCP Creating a Positive Sport Environment training
• Commit to the True Sport Principles
• Ask yourself, ‘What are some ways that I, as a coach, can support the Rule of Two?’
