About The Program
USA Cycling’s Club Safe Sport Program allows clubs to demonstrate their commitment to creating a safe and positive environment for all club members through implementing, enforcing and monitoring USA Cycling’s Safe Sport Program. Clubs have the opportunity to earn three different Safe Sport levels – Bronze, Silver or Gold. Once acquired, clubs will be able to advertise the corresponding Safe Sport level badge on their club platforms and USA Cycling encourages parents to consider the measures of protection that clubs have implemented when determining where to embed your minor athlete in the cycling community.
How It Works
Clubs have an opportunity to upgrade their Safe Sport level annually. Application are open on June 1st and December 1st each year. Clubs are invited to submit detailed information (see below) demonstrating that they have met a particular Safe Sport level. A review of applications will be completed within 10-14 days of submission.
