“As parents, we need to set an example.”
– George Mammen, Parent

Parents play an important role in ensuring everyone feels respected and accepted in amateur sport.

Educating themselves and their kids about unconscious biases, systemic racism, and being mindful goes a long way.

We encourage parents to speak up if they hear racist remarks at a game or a match, help us improve safety practices by filing reports, and inspire kids to enjoy themselves and have fun rather than focusing on winning.

“If you witness racism, speak up and shut it down.”
– Ella Jacque, Athlete

No one should have to question whether they belong because of their race or background.

By listening when minorities speak out, using our voices to report harassment, and making an effort to be more inclusive, together we can build stronger teams, form memorable experiences, and create sport environments where everyone belongs.

“Officiating is about fairness.”
– Karla Yepez, Official

Officials have a responsibility to be impartial – which means applying the rules consistently and fairly.

Reporting incidents of discrimination, modelling respectful behaviour, shutting down marginalization and favouritism, and prioritizing the safety of all participants are just some of the ways officials can make a positive, lasting impact.

“As coaches, we need to protect our athletes.”
– Kilabuk Qupee, Coach

A coach’s duty is to protect all athletes. Which means reporting racism, shutting down discriminatory language, and fostering inclusivity at every level so athletes feel comfortable raising concerns.

By setting clear expectations that everyone is treated with respect and ensuring athletes are given equal opportunities to develop their skills, we can all participate with confidence and have fun!
