    Keeping Track of Criminal Cases & SafeSport Suspensions in Skating

    Agree that there are similar concerns in other youth sports. However, the skating world is TINY compared to the other sports you list above. And the number of boys and men in the sport is exponentially even smaller. Sexual abusers can be women, too but most of the cases documented by...

    Gosh this is encouraging. I'm going to ask our child to reconsider making a report. Also I love that Gymnasts for change in Canada has a hotline. That is a wonderful idea.

    This industry is sketchy. We've watched coaches literally disappear in the night repeatedly. Sometimes to other countries.

    Keeping Track of Criminal Cases & SafeSport Suspensions in Skating

    I want to apologize for jumping 2 weeks late into the conversation like this. With a family member who profoundly affected by SA perpetrated by a member of the national team I am extremely triggered by this newest accusation. Know without a doubt that the statistics are right: There are...
