Bullying has no place in a healthy, positive sport environment. As a leader and mentor, you can raise awareness and engage players, parents, and staff to prevent bullying.
Bullying is taking an enormous adverse toll on America’s youth. In 2021–22, about 19 percent of students ages 12–18 reported being bullied during school.[1] And those youth are at increased risk for depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, and other negative outcomes.[2]
Together, we can put a stop to bullying in sport.
