USA Volleyball requires youth volleyball programs to verify that coaches and staff have completed required background checks and training before working with youth athletes. For Colorado organizations, Volunteer Tracker automates this in a single dashboard.

    Colorado law requires youth sports organizations to run a criminal history record check on all coaches (C.R.S. § 26.5-4-403) and, since July 1, 2025, to have coaches complete annual mandatory reporter training (C.R.S. § 26.5-4-402) — on top of national governing-body requirements.

    National Requirements for Youth Volleyball Volunteers

    Baseline requirements set by USA Volleyball:

    • Background screening (required for all USA Volleyball member coaches working with minors)
    • U.S. Center for SafeSport Core training plus annual refresher
    • IMPACT certification (baseline USA Volleyball coaching education course)

    Where National Standards End and Colorado Law Begins

    Colorado law requires youth sports organizations to run a criminal history record check on all coaches (C.R.S. § 26.5-4-403) and, since July 1, 2025, to have coaches complete annual mandatory reporter training (C.R.S. § 26.5-4-402) — on top of national governing-body requirements.

    National minimums

    USA Volleyball sets baseline requirements and provides tools to track them — but those tools stop at the national standard.

    Colorado legal requirements

    Colorado adds its own legally binding mandates on top — and tracking them is your organization's responsibility. Volunteer Tracker tracks national, state, and league-specific requirements together.

    • Starting July 1, 2025: Annual mandatory reporter training for coaches (plus a prohibited-conduct policy) (Annual)
