NON-COACH STAFF
All volunteer staff dealing directly with players
must have the following:
RESPECT IN SPORT (Go to site)
The Respect in Sport Program assists coaches, referees, trainers and managers with identifying and dealing with abuse, neglect, harassment and bullying in sport. The online course curriculum is divided into six modules, which only take 2.5 hours, and can be completed at the user’s own pace. Free for Manitoba Volunteers.
UNDERSTANDING THE RULE OF TWO (Go to training)
This is a free 20 minute course. The goal of the Rule of Two is to ensure all interactions and communications are open, observable and justifiable. It is one of three pillars of the Responsible Coaching Movement, along with background screening and ethics training.
You must log into the Locker with your NCCP number to access the course.
COMPREHENSIVE BACKGROUND CHECK
This should include a Criminal Record check, Child Abuse Registry and/or Vulnerable Sector check completed within the past three years– volunteers that have this requirement already through their employment or through another organization may complete an annual declaration form to confirm their background check is clear and less than 3 years old.
Contact your home program for instructions on obtaining your background check. For those with a current background check, please download the Annual Declaration, complete and provide to your home program.
Team First-Aiders and trainers play a vital role in our football programming to keep all athletes healthy and safe.
