Safe Sport

What is Safe Sport Training?

Safe Sport is the Coaching Association of Canada’s accredited education program of the Abuse-Free Sports System and is aligned with the Universal Code of Conduct and Maltreatment in Sport (UCCMS). The Universal Code of Conduct to Prevent and Address Maltreatment in Sport calls for all sporting environments to be free from physical, sexual and psychological abuse. The Safe Sport Training module aligns with those values. It equips coaches, administrators and others to make decisions that promote athletes’ physical and mental wellbeing and empowers sporting organizations to foster a culture that contributes to athlete success.
