Safe Sport

Golf Manitoba has aligned with Golf Canada, Sport Manitoba and the Respect Group in committing to fostering a safe sport environment for Golf.

All golfers and volunteers deserve to participate and compete in an environment free from bullying, abuse, harassment or discrimination, regardless of gender identity or expression, race, religion, language, age and ability.

Sport Support Line

Sport Manitoba take its commitment to athlete safety very seriously and have established a Sport Support Line managed 365 days of the year to ensure community members participating in sport have an appropriate outlet to report abuse. In Manitoba the law requires that anyone who suspects a child may be in danger must report their concerns. The Support Line can assist you in making that report.
