SafeSport Refresher 1: Recognizing and
Reporting Misconduct
When to make a report - State and federal law identify certain adults as mandatory reporters—
these are usually people who work with minors on a regular basis, such as teachers, administrators and,
often, coaches.
Federal law also requires that certain adults within national governing bodies and amateur sport
organizations immediately report suspected child abuse to law enforcement.
Adults within the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic
Movements must also report abuse to the U.S. Center for SafeSport.
Definitions of child abuse vary by state - Sexually abusive acts may include sexual penetration,
sexual touching or non-contact sexual acts such as verbal acts, sexually suggestive written or electronic
communications, exposure or voyeurism.
Age of consent - Age of consent laws vary from state-to-state. The U.S. Center for SafeSport
considers anyone under the age of 18 to be a minor. SafeSport Code prohibits any sexual conduct
between a minor and anyone who is more than three-years older or where an imbalance of power exists
(such as between a coach and an athlete).
Child sexual abuse: Adult offender - Each state defines sexual abuse against children within its
own criminal code. It is generally divided based on the type of contact and the age of the child. SafeSport
Code prohibits violating any of these state or federal laws.
Child sexual abuse: Offender and victim under age of 18 - Sexual conduct between peers is
defined by each state. In some cases, a teen engaging in sexual activity with a slightly younger teen, even
in a dating relationship, may be committing a criminal offense.
Sexual conduct between young children and older children is very often criminal behavior particularly if
there is a significant age difference.
, Bullying - Repeated and/or severe aggressive behavior directed at minors that is
Intended or likely to hurt, control or diminish another person emotionally, physically or sexually
Examples:
Ridiculing, taunting, name-calling or intimidating someone
Excluding or ignoring a member of the team
Cyberbullying: Using social or electronic media to harass, frighten, intimidate, or humiliate someone
Harassment - Definition:
Repeated and/or severe conduct that causes fear, humiliation or annoyance; offends or degrades;
creates a hostile environment; or reflects discriminatory bias
Attempts to establish dominance, superiority or power over another
Often occurs over issues of:
Race/ethnicity/culture
Religion
Gender identity
Sexual orientation
Physical or mental disability
Examples:
Using racial slurs against a teammate
Excluding a teammate based on a perceived difference
Repeatedly teasing a teammate based on stereotypes
hazing - Definition:
Conduct that subjects another person—physically or emotionally—to anything that may endanger,
abuse, humiliate, degrade or intimidate the person as a condition of joining or being accepted by a group
Differs from bullying: Hazing is meant to bring someone into a group, not exclude them
