Youth marketplace guidance
Keep player information safe.
Listings should help teams and families connect without exposing a child’s private information.
Photos
- Use action photos with parent or guardian permission.
- Avoid school names, home addresses, house numbers, license plates, and identifiable daily locations.
- Crop out unrelated children when permission is uncertain.
- Remember that hiding a player’s name does not hide their face.
Contact details
- Use an adult’s email address and phone number.
- Never publish a child’s personal email, phone number, home address, school, or daily schedule.
- Keep initial communication inside the private request flow when possible.
- Verify who you are communicating with before sharing additional details.
Meetings and tryouts
- Use supervised, appropriate public facilities.
- Have a parent or guardian present.
- Independently verify coaches, organizations, costs, schedules, and policies.
- Report suspicious, misleading, or unsafe listings immediately.
