CaliforniaYouth Sports for All Act.
What it does
Existing law provides various programs for youth and adolescent health, including requiring a youth sports organization that elects to offer an athletic program to ensure athletes have access to an automated external defibrillator during official practice and regulating youth football. Existing law also authorizes a community youth athletic program to request state and federal level criminal history information for volunteer or hired coach candidates.
More detail
This bill, the Youth Sports for All Act, would require the State Public Health Officer to establish and convene the Blue Ribbon Commission on the Development of a California Department of Youth Sports or an Equivalent Centralized Entity to conduct a comprehensive study on the need for and feasibility of creating a centralized entity charged with supporting and regulating youth sports, as provided, on or before July 1, 2026, or 6 months after implementation commences as described below, whichever is later. The bill would require the commission to submit the study to the Legislature and the Governor on or before January 1, 2028, or 2 years after implementation commences, whichever is later. The bill would make implementation of its provisions contingent upon an appropriation by the Legislature or upon the State Department of Public Health obtaining sufficient funds from federal, nonprofit, or private sources.
This bill would create the Youth Sports Blue Ribbon Commission Fund in the State Treasury and would authorize moneys in the account to be expended by the department, upon appropriation by the Legislature, for purposes of the commission. The bill would create the Youth Sports Blue Ribbon Commission Special Fund Subaccount within the fund for the receipt and deposit of the aforementioned federal, nonprofit, or private moneys, and would continuously appropriate moneys in the subaccount to the department for purposes of the commission, thereby making an appropriation.
This bill would repeal its provisions on January 1, 2033.
