Join us for an insightful webinar led by James Buhlman, a seasoned professional with over 25 years of experience in the sporting industry. In this session, James will discuss bias and discrimination in youth sport and offer actionable strategies for fostering inclusive environments.

As the Manager of Officials Development with Canada Basketball and a member of the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee, James brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the discussion. Drawing from his extensive background as a coach, consultant, and educator, James will explore the various forms of bias and discrimination that can manifest in youth sport settings.

Through interactive discussions and real-world examples, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the impact of bias and discrimination on young participants and learn practical approaches for addressing these issues within their own sporting communities. Whether you’re a coach, parent, administrator, or participant, this webinar offers valuable insights and strategies for creating inclusive and equitable experiences for all youth involved in sports.

Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with James and fellow participants as we work towards building a more inclusive future for youth sports.
