The U.S. Center for SafeSport (The Center) recently released its new Bullying Prevention Handbook, which is tailored to coaches of minor athletes, provides useful tools to create safe and inclusive sporting environments for all athletes.

The handbook’s core themes focus on how to recognize, prevent, and respond to bullying behavior in order to create a positive environment. 



“Youth sports should be fun and confidence-boosting, but bullying can seriously impact an athlete’s physical and mental health,” says Ju’Riese Colon, CEO, U.S. Center for SafeSport.  “Using the Center’s bullying prevention handbook, caring and engaged coaches can foster supportive environments to help athletes thrive on and off the field.”
