SafeSport Training Required for all Team participants
Watch required training videos online
Athletes will not be allowed to participate in practice until they send a current Safesport Certificate with the correct Course depending on Swimmer's age.
Since parent volunteering is an expectation for all families, we will also need at least one parent to complete the Parent Training (ideally the parent that will be volunteering). Midlakes requires ALL Parent volunteers to have Safesport certification.
Our swim league, Midlakes, requires Safesport training for all coaches, athletes and volunteers. Details and all instructions to register for this FREE training can be found in the section below. You should plan on watching the 15 minute training video with your participant and completing your own parent/volunteer training video as well.
