The Winnipeg South End United Soccer Club’s Rule of Two states that there will always be two screened and certified coaches with an athlete in situations where an athlete is potentially vulnerable. These situations extend to any situation whether in-person or on-line and includes any form of communication whether in-person, email, or other electronic communication.
If a screened and certified coach is unavailable, screened volunteers (such as managers, support personnel, chaperones, and directors of the club or organization) should be available instead. If screened volunteers are not available, and the parent/guardian of the athlete is not present, parents of other athletes should be asked to temporarily substitute. If another adult is not available, there should always be more than one athlete with the coach (this final option is the lowest standard and not recommended).
