SAFESPORT CERTIFICATION - ONLY APPLIES TO PLAYERS WHO TURN 18 DURING THE SEASON!
The SafeSport training requirement became an annual training requirement beginning in 2018/2019 season. SafeSport Core being the first then refreshers to follow each additional year. In the new SportsEngine Member Management System the course is easily accessible by clicking on the link on the eligibility requirements you receive when an applicable membership with the requirement is purchased. It can also be accessed by logging into your SportsEngine account at sportsengine.com, going to Household on the left side menu, then your profile and view details on your membership.
Who is required to take the Core Center for SafeSport Training?
- Any new member who falls into the category of the required training (Club Director, Coach, Tourney Directors, Referee's, Organization Admins, team managers or chaperones).
- Any junior member turning 18 during the season. A 2022 Carolina Region Junior Players 18's membership should be purchased and that will have the SafeSport eligibility requirement. It will have also have the parental consent for taking the course if they are not when yet 18 taking. Completing at beginning of season eliminates the having to be in a rush and tracking when they turn 18 and getting it completed before they become ineligible during the season.
Who is required to take the Refresher Courses :
- Any member who has taken the Core Center for SafeSport training and that has expired. Each year there will be a Refresher so if previous year completed Refresher 1 the next year would be Refresher 2 and so on.
Parents – please note the following information in regards to payment.
- All invoices are DUE on the 1st of each month
- Invoices are dated for the 8th of each month – this is AUTODRAFT day – giving you a grace period to mail or drop off a payment prior to actual autodraft.
- Checks totals are the payment MINUS the processing fee - so instead of writing a check for $772.50 as your dashboard shows you - you subtract the $22.50 processing fee and write the check for $750
- Drop a check off at the facility on or before the 1st. It absolutely must be in the box (black mailbox attached to the front desk) no later than by the 5th of each month – the box is checked once a week.
- Mail a check to our mailing address (NOT THE FACILITY); 8803 Waltham Forest Court, Waxhaw, NC 28173. I strongly suggest it gets to my house no later than the 5th of the month. I travel significantly on the weekends with the teams and cannot guarantee it will be posted prior to the autodraft date if received after the 5th.
- If paying by cash – please use a sealed envelope with players name.
- Coaches do not take payments. Including our Satellite locations. If you attend Concord or IT please mail your payments or drop them at the main facility.
- All Invoices can be seen via your league apps account – you can log in there to see invoices, balance due and to change your credit card information.
- TEAM TRAVEL INVOICES: These are setup 1 week after a trip and payment is expected within 2 weeks of the invoice date. Checks or cash must be received 3-5 days in advance of the DUE date on the invoice as the due date is when Credit cards will charge if you have auto payments selected.
- These invoices are True Cost Invoices – we reduce the overall cost by whatever you paid in your team budget and you pay the difference. For Example; If your team fee includes $675 for coaches housing and $300 for Travel for a specific tournament – we reduce the hotel bill and the bus bill by those amounts for each team – THEN, we split the costs amongst those who attend.
- Players are responsible for Bus Driver and Chaperone Housing
- Food costs are split down by team. We do not pay for players individual meals – we only pay for team meals so the cost is evenly divided by each player and by team.
