Spring Sports: Things to Remember!

With the spring sports season in full swing across the state, the safety of athletes and spectators is an area of concern for everyone. School districts and community colleges strive to protect each student athlete and spectator from possible injury while they are engaging in or watching an athletic event. PACE has compiled a list of best practices that you can add to your current policies and practices to help limit the exposure for injury due to the sporting activities. These best practices may not stop an injury from happening but will help limit the damages as a result of one. 

Suggestions on how you can keep student athletes and spectators safe and reduce your liability.

Call PACE to assist you with any specific questions about your current athletic program or to help you formulate a risk management program that will benefit your school district or community college. At your request, PACE loss control consultants will visit you onsite to assess weight rooms, athletic fields and other athletic facilities for liability concerns relating to student and spectator exposures.
