DARE TO CARE IN SPORT (DTCS)
The Canadian Human Rights Act gives each person an equal opportunity to live without being hindered or harmed by discriminatory practices. All provinces and territories have legislation that makes it clear that organizations are required to deal with harassment.
We have a duty to provide a safe environment for training and competition for all members of the UCSC organization. The UCSC is very proud to be the first sports organization in Canada to make it mandatory for all athletes, staff, coaches and parents (members), and officials to receive sport specific bullying prevention education. This was established in the spring of 2017 through a partnership formed between the founder of the school-based DARE TO CARE program and the UCSC board of directors. Through this partnership, DARE TO CARE IN SPORT was created, pilot tested during the 2017/18 swim season and resulted in 98% of our membership attending. The training components included the following areas;
ï a definition of bullying, which then allows concrete identification of bullying behaviors specific tools and strategies to assist swimmers, staff, coaches and members to prevent and stop bullying
ï a shared vocabulary and understanding of bullying to assist in communication and process issues if conflict arises or a complaint is made
ï an introduction and explanation of the Club’s new policy on Harassment and Bullying
In the present swim season 2024/25, all members; including swimmers, parents, staff, coaches, and officials will take the DARE TO CARE IN SPORT seminar. To provide clarification, both parents of a swimmer/s as well as step-parents and guardians are required to complete the DTC seminar.
