Ottawa – March 27, 2024 – Registration is now open for a two-part True Sport webinar series hosted by the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) and Sport Law. Participants will learn how committing to the meaningful and intentional activation of True Sport helps foster a sport culture that leaves less room for harm and provides a greater chance for sport to reach its full potential.

True Sport is an initiative of the CCES, a network leader of values-based sport. This approach is underpinned by seven True Sport Principles that ensure sport instills character in participants, strengthens communities, and increases opportunities for excellence. Sport Law is a long-time supporter of True Sport and a strong advocate for sustainable and effective solutions to Safe Sport challenges.

Participants can register for one or both sessions. Those who attend both will be eligible to win a True Sport prize pack.

The webinars will be delivered in English and resources will be available in French, including the presentation slides.
