Taking measures to ensure athlete safety is crucial in any sport. Conducting annual training, registration, and criminal background checks are important steps to help create a safe and secure environment for athletes.

USA Gymnastics and the US Center for Safesport are two prominent organizations that prioritize athlete safety and provide guidelines and regulations to protect athletes from abuse and misconduct. Complying with their requirements, I am committed to upholding the highest safety standards within the sports community.

The annual training helps educate coaches, staff, and volunteers about recognizing signs of abuse, proper protocols, and best practices for maintaining a safe environment. Regular registration processes ensure that all individuals involved in sporting events, such as coaches, judges, and volunteers, undergo a screening process and meet specific criteria.

Criminal background checks play a vital role in identifying individuals with a history of criminal behavior, helping to prevent potential harm to athletes. By conducting these checks, organizations can better evaluate the suitability of individuals who interact with athletes regularly.

By adhering to the guidelines set forth by USA Gymnastics and the US Center for Safesport, I contribute to athletes' overall well-being and safety. It's important to continue prioritizing athlete safety and promoting a culture of respect and accountability within the sporting community.
