Why Background Checks?

arm_around_kid-thumb-200x133-1235Background checks have become a standard practice in youth sports, as coach violence and sexual abuse and harassment have become more frequent (although still rare) occurrences. Every reasonable effort should be made to protect youth sports participants from adults in the program who have a history of unacceptable criminal activity. It is estimated that 9.6% of all volunteers screened have a criminal record and 2.9% of would be coaches have had convictions involving sex offenses, violence, or other felonies.

First and foremost, background checks are necessary as a matter of safety:

  • Discover previous arrest and convictions for sexual and/or violent offenses
  • Protect your organization from legal liability and lawsuits
  • Prevent allegations of negligent selection and hiring

Tip for Protecting Your Kids:  A proper background check should be part of your risk management strategy, including screening guidelines and child safety training.
