Management and Screening of Squash Coaches

Squash Nova Scotia needs to introduce some changes to how coaches are managed, screened and tracked because of federal regulatory changes resulting from an investigation by CBC into abuse in sport https://www.cbc.ca/sports/federal-sport-minister-new-steps-eliminate-abuse-sport-1.5026911.

Among other things, Squash NS will implement the responsible coaching movement guidelines in the coming months.  To this end we will be looking to meet with active coaches to discuss the way ahead in the next month or so. More to follow as we know it.
