Coaches education requirements from American Water Polo
American Water Polo is adopting a new policy, effective March 20, 2019. The purpose is to provide the safest possible environment for our athletes to enjoy the great sport of water polo.
Certification Overview
The certification process involves these elements:
- Background Check
- Safe Sport Training
- HEADS UP Training for Concussions
- AWP Safety Certification page
A coach must complete and submit all three certifications to become AWP Safety Certified (AWPSC). As of March 15th, only coaches that are AWPSC will be listed as active members and covered by AWP insurance policies.
Send HEADS UP and SafeSport certificates via email to member@americanwaterpolo.org or office@americanwaterpolo.org
Club Requirements
Every club is required to have at least one individual that is AWPSC on deck during an activity involving AWP member athletes. Teams without an AWPSC coach will be ineligible for AWP competition.
Time and Cost
We recognize that these certifications will take the following time:
- Background Check
5 min - Safe Sport Training
90 min - HEADS UP Training for Concussions 60 min
We appreciate your efforts and want to partner with you to keep your athletes safe and healthy. That is why American Water Polo will pay all costs involved with obtaining background clearances and Safe Sport Training (HEADS UP training is free).
Thanks in advance for your participation!
