Safe Sport: For Junior Competitors

For those about to turn 18 years old, you should familiarize yourself with the USEF Safe Sport Policy and MAAPP (Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies). In order to remain eligible to compete at USEF licensed competitions, you must complete your SafeSport training prior to turning 18.

Since this must be done prior to you turning 18, USEF requries your parent or guardian’s consent for you to access the SafeSport Training. To record their consent in our system and access the Training, first log into the USEF website and then go to our SafeSport Training page. Once there, follow the instructions on the page to send a request to your parent/guardian’s email for their consent for you to complete the Training. Your parent will need to find the email in their inbox and click on the “grant consent”.

Once consent has been granted, you can go back to the page and create a Training account by entering your email address, birthday, and zip code and clicking on the “create new account”. Once the Training account has been created you will see a green bar, with the training module below.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Victims and survivors of sexual abuse can request an exemption from the training requirement. Requests may be made directly to the U.S. Center for SafeSport at [email protected].
