RUNNING COACH QUALIFICATIONS
The USOC whole heartedly supports measures such as USATF’s Coaches Registry, which lend legitimacy to coaches in good standing while also potentially protecting athletes from individuals with ill-intentions.
– Scott Blackmun, United States Olympic Committee CEO
Coaches from all of our communities, which include college, post-collegiate, youth, high school and club, have completed the process to be a Registered Coach. We know the majority of coaches already live and work according to the Code of Conduct; the Coaches Registry helps the rest of the world understand that as well.
– Terry Crawford, USATF Director of Coaching
The Coaches Registry is part of our commitment to implementing ‘best practices’ that are on a par with the best-run sports in America. In the end, this is everybody doing what is best for athletes, coaches and our sport. It is our intent to work together with coaches in a positive and productive way to make sure we are serving them as well as our athletes.
– Stephanie Hightower, USATF President & Chairman
