All individuals requiring SafeSport training must be checked against the following databases:

2. U.S. Soccer Risk Management List: U.S. Soccer has adjusted the security requirements for the risk management list going forward. As a result, we are changing the process for accessing the risk management list. Rather than using a shared link, individuals who need access to the list will be added as individual contributors via their email address. Once added, they will be prompted to create a Box account through which they can view the list. Please each out to Sophia (smiller@ussoccer.org) and Bria (bduvall@ussoccer.org) with the names and email addresses of any individual(s) from your organization who need access to the list.
