The Blanton Collier Sportsmanship Group, Inc. (BCSG) is a non-profit organization based in Lexington, KY, dedicated to promoting ethical coaching and preventing athlete abuse in all levels of athletic competition. Founded in 2008, the BCSG provides standards, guidelines, and education on coaching ethics, while honoring coaches who exemplify the ethical standards set by Coach Blanton Collier. Their mission is to reduce preventable injuries and the physical and psychological abuse suffered by athletes through education and assistance.
The BCSG was inspired by the reunion of the 1961-1962 University of Kentucky Freshmen football team, who experienced extreme abuse under a new coaching staff. The organization aims to eliminate athlete abuse and reduce injuries in sports, with a focus on educating coaches to foster positive relationships with young athletes. With over 30 million kids participating in sports annually in the U.S., the BCSG's goal is to create a safe and ethical environment for athletes from early non-school activities through college.
