We all need to stand together and speak up against bullying. We cannot afford to stay silent- this is on ALL of us. The challenge with solving bullying is that far too often we see it but we do not feel comfortable speaking up against it. How do we create spaces that encourage and support athletes/parents/coaches to speak up and put a stop to bullying? How can we do a better job of creating safe spaces where all athletes, regardless of their age, gender and/or ability, feel safe and supported?  Let's have these important conversations together and change the future of sport.
