MAAPP Policy: The Center for SafeSport has developed the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies (MAAPP) which USA Judo has adapted to our own sport.  The MAAPP is a collection of proactive and training policies comprising two parts: Education and Training Policy that requires training for certain Adult Participants and the Required Prevention Policies, focused on limiting one-on-one interactions between Adult Participants and Minor Athletes to prevent abuse.  The full MAAPP policy and the reporting mechanism for SafeSport infractions can be found at https://www.teamusa.org/USA-Judo/MAAPP
