In less than a week of its suspension from the Canadian Safe Sport Program (CSSP), Cricket Canada has relented. It has agreed to meet the Canada requirements of participating, completing the mandatory e-learning module, and the consent form, a critical obligation under the adoption contract.
The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) wishes to advise that Cricket Canada’s contract to participate in the Canadian Safe Sport Program (CSSP) has been reinstated, effective Oct. 17, says Megan Cummins, Manager Corporate Communications.
This reinstatement is due to Cricket Canada now meeting the Canada requirement of participants completing the mandatory e-learning module and consent form, a critical obligation under the adoption contract.

Most importantly, this means individuals identified as CSSP participants by Cricket Canada are able to access the CSSP report process and protections.
The suspension for failure to meet participant e-learning and consent requirements, as set out in the CSSP adoption contract, was handed down on Oct. 14, 2025. The CCES recognizes the swift and concerted effort since that date by Cricket Canada to fulfill its outstanding CSSP requirements.
Adopting Sport Organizations that participate in the CSSP have key responsibilities to support the effective implementation of the program and to foster a safe sport environment. A critical part of this commitment includes ensuring participants complete the mandatory 40-minute e-learning module and sign the consent form – steps that are essential for participants to understand their rights and responsibilities under the CSSP.
