American football names and shames aggressors sanctioned following Yates report
October 24 - Women's soccer authorities in the United States have taken the first steps to implement recommendations from the high-profile investigation that uncovered "systemic" abuse and misconduct by coaches of female players of the country's national leagues.
The findings of the investigation, led by former acting attorney general Sally Yates, left American players "angry and exhausted" after it was revealed that the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) of the United States Soccer Federation football (USSF) had failed to provide a safe environment. .
The Yates report made recommendations "aimed at preventing future abuse, holding wrongdoers accountable, improving transparency, ensuring safety in youth football and fostering a professional environment in which players are treated with respect".
Less than three weeks after the publication of the full investigative report commissioned by U.S. Soccer, the federation has publicly shared one of its first measures implemented: publishing a list of those currently subject to disciplinary measures, suspension or total ban. .
"It is our duty to build on the wave of change that began with the courageous voices and actions of our players," said Danielle Slaton, Chair of US Soccer's Yates Implementation Committee.
"(The) committee, in conjunction with US Soccer staff, is actively advancing the crucial steps necessary to implement the recommendations set out in Sally Yates' report as quickly and efficiently as possible."
"I am personally dedicated to ensuring that this process results in meaningful reform of our sport, and I know that the other committee members share this commitment.
“We are just getting started. Our committee and US Soccer staff still have a lot to do and we will continue to do the hard work to turn words into action and lasting change.”
