Safe Sport Contacts

Together, SYS and USA Swimming are committed to fostering a fun, healthy and safe environment for all its members.  SYS has formally implemented a comprehensive Safe Sport program following USA Swimming guidelines to respond to and prevent instances of abuse and misconduct within the sport of swimming. Cultivating a safe sport culture on our team means establishing clear expectations and communications structures and creating an environment of positive support.

The following policies and guidelines are part of Shata YMCA Shark’s registration every year.  Each swimmer and parent must read and agree to the policies before registration can be completed. 

Here you can find the parent MAAPP consent forms:

In addition, USA Swimming has dedicated a portion of their website to clubs, swimmers and parents with resources for Safe Sport.  Here you can find sources of information, documents, procedures for reporting a concern, and online training for swimmers, parents and coaches. 

If you have any questions about SAFE SPORT in our club, please contact Felix Moreno, Safe Sport Compliance Officer for Shasta YMCA Sharks swim team via email at [email protected].
