Question for somebody out there. I am a high school wrestling coach outside of KC and am trying to get a club started in conjunction and as a supplement to our school wrestling progam. A question was posed to me by some parents concerned about the safety of their children.

Does USA wrestling require background checks of their volunteer coaches as well as other people that come into contact with kids as a result of their participation in the sanctioned program????
If they don't it might be something that the organization might want to consider.

Again, I am just in the beginning stages of getting a new program going. Right now it is in just the exploratory stage. As several parents have requested that I do some legwork.
