“…However, this attempt at reputational damage by shaming Mays and Richmond for their actions may not have long-term effects. Nurka (2013) has argued that sport stars who are accused of rape can be dishonoured by their actions but their reputations will not be as damaged nor will they be shamed by the public in a manner or level equal with the damage of shame to the victim. The rape of women by men belonging to a sports team can, and often is, utilised by the perpetrators to enact male bonding (Flood 2008), and it is socially accepted that certain sports are homosocial and areas from which women are excluded.…”

The increased active participation of individuals in the creation of sexual violence narratives online, as opposed to the previously passive consumption of news stories offline, could prove problematic in ensuring justice is served. Social media allows for circumvention of the criminal justice system in response to its perceived inadequacies. With the 24-hour news cycle, the ease with which media consumers can interact with the story as it breaks online, and the manner in which social media has been used by laypersons and secondary bystanders to target victims or perpetrators before a case ever makes it to court, raises questions about how narrative construction online possibly influences people's beliefs and understandings about sexual violence and the effect this may have for the justice system.

These perpetrators often engage in grooming behaviors (33,34) to build trust and use situations with less supervision as opportunities for their abuse (35)(36)(37).…”

Athletes are vulnerable to sexual violence. Perpetrators of sexual violence may be a trusted coach, a member of the health care team, or a peer. The consequences of sexual violence are wide ranging, resulting in immediate and long-term physical and mental health outcomes that require recognition and comprehensive, multidisciplinary care. Sports medicine providers need to have specific knowledge and skill to care for athletes who experience sexual violence. Several sports organizations (e.g., International Olympic Committee, United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee, the National Collegiate Athletic Association, and the National Athletic Trainers' Association) have developed policies and procedures to prevent sexual violence and help sports medicine specialists provide care and services for athletes affected by sexual violence. Nevertheless, there remains a need for clinical guidelines, screening tools, and education, as well as clinical best practices to address sexual violence in sports medicine.
