The U.S. Center for SafeSport created the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies (MAAPP), a collection of proactive prevention and training policies for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Movement to help create a safer and healthier environment in which minor athletes can thrive.The MAAPP was originally released in 2019 to support organizations and individuals in preventing abuse in sport and meeting requirements under federal law. As a member of USA Triathlon and participant or volunteer/contractor at a USA Triathlon National Championship event, you are required to follow these policies.

In preparation for this upcoming USA Triathlon National Championship event, where the MAAPP will be enforced, please review the MAAPP overview.

The MAAPP focuses on in-program contact between an adult participant and a minor athlete, and covers the following Required Prevention Policies: One-on-One Interaction, Meeting and Training Sessions, Athletic Training Modalities, Massages and Rubdowns, Locker Rooms and Changing Areas, Electronic Communications, Transportation, and Lodging.

One-on-One Interaction, Athletic Training Modalities, Massages and Rubdowns, Locker Rooms and Changing Areas apply at all facilities or locations that are partially or fully under the jurisdiction of USA Triathlon. Partial or full jurisdiction includes the following:

• Any sanctioned event or competition by USA Triathlon
• Any facility that USA Triathlon owns, leases, or rents for competition, training or practices
• Any hotel or lodging that the team is using when traveling to a sanctioned USA Triathlon event or competition

All of the Required Prevention Policies must be followed by:

• Adult participants of USA Triathlon who have regular contact with minor athletes
• Adult participants authorized by USA Triathlon to have regular contact with minor athletes
• Adult participants authorized by USA Triathlon to have authority over minor athletes
• Adult staff and board members at USA Triathlon

One-on-One Interaction, Athletic Training Modalities, Massages and Rubdowns, Locker Rooms and Changing Areas ALSO need to be followed by:

• Any adult participant at a facility that is partially or fully under the jurisdiction of USA Triathlon.

As a reminder, all adult participants – including those with one-day memberships – are Mandatory Reporters. If you see or hear a report of any form of abuse, whether it is sexual, physical, mental or another type of abuse you are required to report that abuse within a 24-hour period. You can file a report to the Center through its online reporting form or by calling the Center at 833-587-7233. If you witness any MAAPP violations or other related misconduct, please report it to USA Triathlon here: USA Triathlon Reporting Form.

If you have any additional questions or concern, please email trisafe@usatriathlon.org.
