Safe Sport Training

Canadian Pony Club (CPC) is an organization that believes in fostering safe spaces for members and volunteers. Our goal is to ensure all volunteers, in a position of authority, are aware of their responsibilities with respect to the treatment of our members. Therefore, CPC has adopted a strong requirement for Safe Sport Training.

The intent of this recommended training is to:

  • empower and educate youth leaders/coaches on the prevention of abuse, bullying and harassment
  • build a holistic culture of respect within the sport community
  • provide fundamental training tools which enable ALL coaches and activity leaders to become even better role models for every member within their care

At this time it is strongly recommended that all CPC volunteers who have contact with/are responsible for/are in position of authority with members should take one of the following course.

The following are 3 organizations providing training in these fields:
