A wide-ranging survey into the state of the U.S. Olympic system leveled criticism at the U.S. Center for SafeSport, with a draft report concluding that feedback collected about the 6-year-old agency “paints a picture of a center in potential crisis.”
“And there was a loss of trust throughout that process,” she said.
“In conclusion, this data paints a picture of a center in potential crisis. The U.S. Center for SafeSport, while recognized by some, is not overwhelmingly seen as effective,” the report reads. The commission will produce a full report with recommendations and possible proposed legislation early next year. Results and conclusions from its survey, which was not shared with witnesses before Wednesday’s hearing, will help the commission shape its report.
Only 19% of athletes had access to sponsorship deals, a distribution that “points toward a need for diversified and consistent income streams for athletes,” the report said. Criticisms of the SafeSport Center at the hearing included its reliance on “administrative closures.” Nearly 38% of cases it investigated between 2017 and 2022 ended this way, meaning SafeSport made no findings, imposed no sanctions and there was no public record of the allegation. The length of time it takes the center to close some cases — some take a year or more — also came under scrutiny.
