New campaign encouraging sport organizations to take the RCM pledge!
We all have a role to play to ensure that sport can remain safe, smart and secure for everyone. The first step in fostering a fair and positive sport environment is for sport organizations to take the Responsible Coaching Movement (RCM) pledge.
We have recently launched a new campaign to help spread awareness and encourage organizations across the country to take the RCM pledge.
Keep sport Safe, Smart and Secure!
Creating a culture in sport that is truly safe, smart and secure for everyone is a team effort. We invite you to help raise awareness by joining us in supporting this impactful campaign. Together we can help make sport safe and fun for everyone.
