USA Water Ski & Wake Sports’ top priority continues to be creating a safe, healthy and positive environment free from abuse for all of our members. As part of our commitment to safeguard athletes, USA-WSWS has approved an updated Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policy (MAAPP) applicable to all members and LOCs.

 

These required updates come from the U.S. Center for SafeSport (the “Center”). USA Water Ski & Wake Sports’ updated MAAPP has been approved by the Center and is required to be fully implemented by USA Water Ski & Wake Sports’ and its LOCs in full beginning Jan. 1, 2022. 

 

Below are some key takeaways to understand and focus on:
