Concussion and Harassment Policies
At the start of each Lifesaving Sport season, all participants - including athletes, parents/caregivers, coaches, officials, and other volunteers - are expected to complete annual training on concussion and harassment prevention.
It is the responsibility of the coaches to ensure that all members of their clubs have read and understood the following documents:
Lifesaving Sport Concussion Policy
Parachute Concussion Education Resources:
- Concussion Guide for Athletes
- Concussion Guide for Coaches and Trainers
- Concussion Guide for Parents and Caregivers
Harassment Prevention Policy and Training
Additional mandatory education resources for review:
- Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport Universal Code of Conduct to Prevent and Address Maltreatment in Sport (required review of Section 5: Prohibited Behaviours, pgs. 7-14)
- Coaching Association of Canada's Rule of Two Infographic
- Canadian Safety Support Services
Next Steps (Coaches Only)
Once all members of your club have completed the training resources, fill out and submit the Club Compliance form as proof that your club has met all annual training components.
