Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies (MAAPP)

information distribution required by USA Triathlon

This purpose of this message is to ensure that USAT-sanctioned events meet safety standards as required by the U.S. Center for SafeSport, especially in protecting minors, by focusing resources and monitoring where risks are highest.

Please READ!!!

Hello! 


The U.S. Center for SafeSport created the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies (MAAPP), a collection of proactive prevention and training policies for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Movement to help create a safer and healthier environment in which minor athletes can thrive. 


The MAAPP was originally released in 2019 to support organizations and individuals in preventing abuse in sport and meeting requirements under federal law. As a member of USA Triathlon and participant at a USA Triathlon sanctioned event, you are required to follow these policies. 


The MAAPP focuses on in-program contact between an Adult Event Participant and a minor athlete and covers the following Required Prevention Policies: One-on-One Interaction, Meeting and Training Sessions, Athletic Training Modalities, Massages and Rubdowns, Locker Rooms and Changing Areas, Electronic Communications, Transportation, and Lodging. 


All Required Prevention Policies apply at all facilities or locations that are partially or fully under the jurisdiction of USA Triathlon. 

Partial or full jurisdiction includes the following: 

  • Any event or competition sanctioned by USA Triathlon 
  • Any facility that USA Triathlon owns, leases, or rents for competition, training, or practices 
  • Any hotel or lodging that the team is using when traveling to a sanctioned USA Triathlon event or competition 

All Required Prevention Policies must be followed by: 

  • Adult Event Participants who have direct contact with minor athletes 
  • Adult Event Participants authorized to have direct contact with minor athletes 
  • Adult Event Participants authorized to have authority over minor athletes 
  • Any Adult Event Participant at a facility that is partially or fully under the jurisdiction of USA Triathlon 


As the MAAPP will be enforced at Tri for Jimmy being held on June 1, 2025, please review the MAAPP at a Glance in preparation for the upcoming event. Additionally, please review USA Triathlon’s SafeSport Policies and References. 


Mandatory Reporting 


As a reminder, all Adult Event Participants– including those with one-day memberships – are Mandatory Reporters. If you see or hear a report of any form of abuse, whether it is sexual, physical, mental or another type of abuse you are required to report that abuse within a 24-hour period. You can file a report to the U.S. Center for SafeSport through its online reporting form or by calling the U.S. Center for SafeSport at 833-587-7233 or USA Triathlon at trisafe@usatriathlon.org. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please email trisafe@usatriathlon.org. 

Thank you,  

Lisa Totz, Race Director
