IMPACT Administrators' Toolkit
Men As Peacemakers
A 6-step guide to saftey & gender equity in sports.
This toolkit includes resources for Executive Directors, Club Presidents, Coaching Directors or other leaders of community athletic organizations. The resources included will teach your coaches to promote safety, respect, and gender equity with all players. This guide is meant to provide examples and a framework for the development of your organization’s policies and procedures. Our previous work with the Minnesota State High School League, Arrowhead Youth Soccer Association, Winona Youth Soccer Association, and other sports organizations, has taught us that every organization is unique. We encourage you to work with us directly to tailor your approach to your specific community of coaches and players. Contact Men As Peacemakers at info@menaspeacemakers.org or 218-727-1939 to get started.

Key Actions Handout/Video for Parents and Coaches
Positive Coaching Alliance
These materials for youth and high school sports parents and coaches can help prevent sex abuse. These resources were developed through PCA's partnership with Kidpower International, a leading non-profit in teaching personal safety to all ages and abilities and in protecting young people from bullying, violence, and abuse worldwide since 1989. They include support by Green Bay Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy, a PCA National Advisory Board Member.
Murphy said of these resources: “Abuse prevention is critical to providing children a positive, character-building youth sports experience. That’s why the Packers and I support this effort by PCA and its partners. The more we can spread these abuse-prevention resources, the safer our kids will be.”
This document includes key actions for parents and coaches and is accompanied by this video. You’ll learn about common warning signs of sexual abuse as well as what you can do in your role.

Positive Coaching Alliance Workshops
Positive Coaching Alliance
Typically, an individual school or youth sports organization hosts a Leadership workshop for its directors, a separate Double-Goal Coach workshop for all its coaches, and a separate Second-Goal Parent workshop. A Triple-Impact Competitor workshop is available for teenage athletes in the school or organization. PCA also offers Partnerships that include workshops for school districts, conferences, park-and-recreation organizations, leagues, and youth sports consortiums in all 50 states and several other nations. Each workshop takes anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours and is led by a PCA Trainer with deep athletic and coaching experience (usually at least three years at the high school level or above). The Trainer explains PCA's three key principles -- Redefining "Winning" as Mastery of Sport, Filling Emotional Tanks and Honoring the Game -- and leads attendees through a series of interactive exercises based on common youth sports scenarios. The result is that the group of leaders, coaches, parents or athletes begins to explore different approaches for success and establishes a common vocabulary for use in providing athletes a positive, character-building youth sports environment.
