Ottawa Now - New study points to an uptick in hazing, with today's youngest age groups far from immune
November 25, 2025
The 2025 Ontario Coaching Report finds that hazing is far more common than you might expect. Based on a survey of athletes and unrelated parents, it finds that 1-in-7 athletes between the 6 to 9 age range have experienced some form of it. And when it comes to today’s early-teens, specifically in the 13 to 15 age range, 1-in-3 have dealt with it. Dr. Jay Johnson is a leading Canadian hazing researcher with 30 years of experience, and recently helped assemble the 2025 edition of this report. He joins Kristy Cameron on today’s Ottawa Now.
