PA New Safe Sport Instructions

Posted by on Sep 20, 2022 in Coach, Elite Athlete, Mtn-Ultra-Trail Running, Officials, pausatf, Race Walking, Road Racing, Track & Field, XC, Youth | 0 comments

We have had some updates to our website over the past couple of months. The instructions for USATF Safe Sport training currently on the website are outdated. We are working on getting those updated but inserted below are updated instructions for you to use in the meantime. You may also download this pdf.

Additionally,  the SafeSport Trained Core and Refresher courses as well as courses on mandatory reporting and courses for adult athletes will be updated on Wednesday, October 19th. The learning platform will be offline on Wednesday, October 19th. Individuals “in progress” should complete their course by Tuesday, October 18th so their progress isn’t lost in the update.

Please let me know if you have any questions – I look forward to our meeting on October 2nd!

Thank you so much for your hard work and help!
