Recap | Helping Protect the Future of Youth Sports Webinar


As part of NCYS' 2023 National Youth Sports Week celebration, SportsEngine and NCSI gathered a panel of experts to discuss helping protect the future of youth sports. This year, SportsEngine's moderator and VP of Advocacy and Impact, Trish Sylvia, helped us understand how emotional abuse and bullying affect youth sports environments, athletes, coaches, volunteers, and organizers.

The panel of experts represented each part of the youth sports ecosystem to offer their perspectives and resources. Watch the webinar above to hear from experts at TrueSport, the National Association for Sports Officials (NASO), Positive Coaching Alliance, the National Center for Safety Initiatives (NCSI), the U.S. Soccer Foundation, and the U.S. Center for SafeSport.
