Ilan Yampolsky

Passionate. Protective. Persuasive. These three words describe the Founder of ITP Sport, Ilan Yampolsky, one of Canada’s leading voices in safe sport. In 2018, he saw the need for an independent organization that could come alongside national, provincial and grassroots sport and recreation organizations, to prevent maltreatment and protect organizations and their members. In establishing ITP Sport and Recreation, he has developed one of the foremost teams in the country, with extensive experience and expertise at all levels of safeguarding in sport and other youth organizations. It is more than his work. It is his passion.
