To All Club Admins & StaffMembers:

The new Risk Management season is now Open. Club Admins must have correctly registered for a new RM dashboard membership account in order to access the new season. Club Staff should contact their respective Club Registrar for RM registration/renewal instructions. Referees please follow WNYRA instructions on how to register. You must complete your recertification materials FIRST.

(Use Chrome or Firefox. Both Microsoft Edge & Apple Safari have a known photo upload bug.)

Related Risk Management material and resources will update accordingly.  Please be patient as we edit all relevant portions/pages to reflect the most current processes and policies.  Notification will appear here again once the process is complete.

Regards,

NYSWYSA Risk Management

To Club Administrators:

NYSWYSA will be adding some added enhancements and new capabilities for the upcoming 2022-23 Risk Management application/renewal process.  SportsEngine has added new status tracking and notification features to your RM Dashboards that will make managing your staffs’ RM compliance easier and more versatile.

Due to the addition of these enhancements, the new 2022-23 RM season will launch on November 15th rather than November 1st so that proper testing can be completed, and each club has time to register and access the new RM dashboard

What does this mean for you?
All NYSWYSA clubs will receive a free SportsEngine HQ account to access a new member management system where you can complete and track safety eligibility requirements as well as send reminder notifications to your staff.

What’s next for you?
In order to utilize your club’s new RM dashboard, your currently designated administrators must access your new SportsEngine HQ account to ensure you have the proper permissions prior to the November 15th launch date. 

How Will This Happen?
To help prepare for the launch of the new system, currently designated SE club administrators will receive emails from SportsEngine prior to the launch date prompting you to access your HQ RM dashboard account. Once your account is properly accessed, you will no longer receive these emails. If you already use SportsEngine for team management, NYSW RM compliance services will be added to your existing Member Management account.  

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out directly at riskmanagement@nyswysa.org and we will be happy to help! We will have various support services available via FAQ and Help documentation found within your HQ RM dashboard account.
