Each club has a registrar that has access to the club’s GotSport account under NKSL. If you do not have your login, please reach out to me to get that access. All club leaders have to complete the risk management process.
Why is this important? These steps are necessary to minimize risk associated with the playing and administration of the game of soccer.
Risk Management addresses a number of issues which include, but are not limited to, background checks & SafeSport training for those involved with youth players, abuse reporting, field and game safety and the protection of the state association and of each member organization and their assets.
Risk Management components
Background check - is good for 2 years if completed for a Fall soccer season
The caveat: If the expiration date does not extend through the entire season season it will need to be completed again
Example: Completed the background check on March 1st for the Spring soccer season, this will be good for 1.5 years
Safesport training - is good for 1 year if completed for a Fall soccer season
The caveat: Spring only and New coaches for Spring will have to complete this again for Fall compliance
KYSA has moved to a annual cutoff expiration July 31st
New seasonal year requirements can begin July 1st
Example: Completed the safesport on March 1st. It will have to be taken again after July 1st to be compliant for the Fall season.
