What are the requirements for parent or club volunteers when working with a Youth Program?

Edited

Volunteers  are required to have:  

  • Current USRowing Membership and Waiver  

  • Supporter Memberships are available for $10 and include SafeSport Training – not eligible for any on water activities  

  • If you are a club volunteer and a competing athlete,   your Basic or Championship Membership is sufficient. 

  • Safe Sport Trained Core Course or the applicable refresher course 

  • USOPC Approved, NCSI Background Check* 

* USRowing is working on the best ways to ensure that our requirements are rooted in effective risk mitigation and not just administrative compliance. There are few areas where we will continue to work with the U.S. Center for SafeSport and the USOPC to ensure we create an effective risk mitigating policy prior to March 1, 2025
