This year’s NCSM theme is “Start Every Season with Safety” and there’s no better way to kick off week one than with a focus on getting season-ready! Getting season ready means reviewing all safety protocols like AED training and Emergency Action Plans and making sure they are updated and in place.  It also means includes working fundamentals and basics, even if last year’s team was hitting back handspring full ups. • Take every team member through spotting drills. • Learn how to fall and catch safely. • Build up your strength and stamina and lay a strong foundation on which to get better! Don’t forget that everyone - coaches, athletes, and parents - should also learn about concussions, heat illness, and athlete abuse prevention. Start EVERY Season with Safety! #ncsm #nationalcheersafetymonth #usacheer
