The University of Edinburgh/NSPCC Centre for UK-wide Learning in Child Protection (CLiCP) carried out a three year research study of young adults' childhood experiences of emotional harm, body image, self harm, sexual harm and physical harm in organised sport.
Three published reports provide a headline summary, a longer overview and the full in-depth research findings.
A 10 page highlight of the main findings of the online survey.
A longer 22 page report covering the background and design of the study and presenting the findings from the online survey and the interviews.
The full 200 page report sets out the context of children's rights, child abuse and child protection in sport; presents the research methodology; provides information on the participants; and gives details of the quantitative and qualitative findings (data tables, graphs and quotations) for different sports, and different forms of abuse and harm.
