From Simone Biles, and USA Gymnastics, to Kyle Beach in the AHL & NHL, reports of sexual assault in sports have become more common as survivors speak out. 40%-50% of athletes report experiencing mild harassment to severe abuse. 90% are familiar with their perpetrators

As survivors continue to bravely come forward with their stories, reports of sexual assault within the realm of sports have become increasingly prevalent, shedding light on a pervasive issue that extends across various athletic disciplines. From high-profile cases involving athletes like Simone Biles and organizations like USA Gymnastics to lesser-known instances like that of Kyle Beach in the AHL and NHL, the prevalence of sexual assault in sports has garnered widespread attention. Shockingly, studies indicate that between 40% to 50% of athletes report experiencing some form of harassment or abuse, ranging from mild instances to severe assaults. Even more alarming is the statistic that 90% of these athletes are familiar with their perpetrators, highlighting the often-hidden nature of these crimes within close-knit sports communities.

As survivors continue to break their silence and demand accountability, the sports world faces a reckoning with the prevalence of sexual assault and harassment within its ranks. Calls for systemic change and greater protections for athletes have intensified, with advocates pushing for increased education, prevention measures, and support for survivors. As athletes and sports organizations grapple with the realities of sexual violence, the spotlight on these issues serves as a catalyst for meaningful action and a renewed commitment to creating safer environments for all individuals involved in sports.
