British high jump coach Fayaaz ‘Fuzz’ Caan has been suspended for three years following a UK Athletics (UKA) investigation into his conduct.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The ban begins from the date of Caan’s initial suspension on 30 June 2021 and will continue until 29 June 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

UKA raised 12 alleged charges against Caan after an investigation was launched following a complaint concerning his coaching practices.<\/span><\/p>\n

He helped Robbie Grabarz win a silver medal at the London 2012 Olympics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Caan was suspended shortly before the Tokyo Games, where he would have coached GB athletes Morgan Lake and Emily Borthwick.<\/span><\/p>\n

He has continued to work as a consultant at the Saudi Olympic Training Centre.<\/span><\/p>\n

A UKA disciplinary panel sought to determine whether Caan’s behaviour and conduct breached the conditions of UKA’s Coach Licensing Scheme and Code of Conduct for Coaches.<\/span><\/p>\n

Among the charges it is alleged Caan “created an atmosphere in his training group where bullying was commonplace and acceptable; and allowed bullying and harassment to occur in his training group without challenging it”.<\/span><\/p>\n

He denied that charge but accepted that “bullying occurred between athletes in his training group”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Caan, who admitted separate charges of using abusive language and impersonating a disabled person, does not have the right to appeal the decision.<\/span><\/p>\n

The coach alleges that he was not offered sufficient support while employed by UKA and that “extreme pressure” was placed upon him to deliver results.<\/span><\/p>\n

UKA said it was “disappointed” Caan felt he was not offered appropriate support and it would take steps to “ensure positive cultures are in place within the organisation”.<\/span><\/p>\n
