USA Badminton Coaches Background Screening Program

 
USA Badminton is proud to announce a working partnership with National Center for Safety Initiatives through which we will engage in a comprehensive background screening program. Beginning October 5, 2006 Background Checks will be mandatory for Coaching Certification. This process must be completed before being certified. The cost is the responsibility of the Coach.

USA Badminton has taken important steps to ensure the highest level of safety within our programs - for the youth participants and also for you, who make the programs a success. One of these steps is the implementation of a standardized approach to background screening for our coaches through the National Center for Safety Initiatives. This includes a comprehensive background screening using the Center's Check it Twice(TM) product and a simple "Red Light/Green Light" clearance report issued in accordance with the Recommended Guidelines(R) published by the National Council of Youth Sports. This is part of a national movement towards the standardization of safety programs for youth-serving organizations in this country.

USA Badminton has worked with National Center for Safety Initiatives to ensure that this process is convenient, secure and confidential.
