[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For swimming, USA Swimming rules, require that any communication between a coach and a swimmer under the age of 18 must also include a parent. A swim coach cannot have one-on-one communication with one of their swimmers. This is true for any form of communication, text, email, etc. [/quote] Same with Boy Scouts/Cub Scouts. No private communications allowed. Another adult must be included on any texts or emails. Makes sense to me. In your scenario, op, I’d have the child include you on any messages. [/quote] All of the above! What the coach is asking goes against US Safe Sport (an organization that I believe most Olympic sports are a part of) - https://uscenterforsafesport.org/ While I get what is said about growing responsibility this can also be accomplished via more public means (GroupMe being a popular one with my children's coaches).[/quote]
