These women are choosing their safety over the game they love because they were failed by the very institution meant to protect them. While the club has tried to silence the conversation by disabling comments, the rugby world is watching.

Never underestimate how fast a pickleball can travel during a heated rally. A split-second misjudgment can mean an eye injury. Safety glasses create a strong barrier while keeping your view crisp and unobstructed. Play with confidence every time. 🥽⚡🏓 #PickleballTips #SafeSport

(The skirt catch on her ⛸️ was secretly my souls’ wish.)
#SafeSport ? Ugh this sport
This information rocked the gymnastics world around the world to it's core. It is both shocking and disgusting. This media coverage opened the door more brave people to come forward about abuse, especially coach abuse. Especially in Canada, though not as publicized. #SafeSport
This guidance will become one of the highest, most wide-reaching standards for #safesport in the world – and in a historic first, athlete survivors & allies have had a say in its development.
👏 to @jujuca1987.bsky.social, @andreaflorence.bsky.social & all at #UNESCO for this amazing accomplishment.

The problem with concussions, especially with young athletes, is asking them “are you ok?” is insufficient. (I don’t the protocol followed off-camera.)
Allowing Ryan Hu to skate the free dance was not practicing #SafeSport in 🇺🇸 figure skating. We have to protect our athletes better. #SkateNQSFinals
Oh gosh, the poor guy. Do better for your athletes USFS!!!
Also, I just re-watched Ryan Hu’s first twizzle from the ⛸️ Free Dance, and you can see the problem in his eyes and stability. #SafeSport is to protect our young 🇺🇸 athletes from injury too!
In 2021, Kevin Aymoz's coaching team was banned for 2 years by US #SafeSport for protecting Morgan Cipres after a warrant was issued for his arrest after he sent sexually explicit photos to a 12 year old girl. Sylvia Fontana, Kevin's main coach, tried to intimidate the minor to NOT report. #SCI25
Thank you for doing it. I hate that someone has to. But you’re right: there are so many issues, things get lost in the noise. #SafeSport
The British Royal Family revoked Prince Andrew's title and residence after victims came forward detailing his role in their sexual abuse and exploitation as adolescent girls. Yet, the International Volleyball Federation and the Dutch Volleyball Association are allowing Van de Velde a convicted child rapist to represent his country on the world stage, met with silence from leading Australian Sport organisations. Never thought say it, but the monarchy seems more decisive on child sexual abuse than sport.
In loving memory of Virginia Giuffre - solidarity with all victims and survivors of these two men, and all those impacted by institutional decisions and silence. #safesport #princeandrew #volleyball #beachvolleyballl #adelaide2025
