They call you coach. Their parents call you accountable.

Participation in youth sports is widespread in American culture. While involvement in such activities promotes physical fitness, it also leads to a risk of injury. We must do something to save these children who are putting their bodies and even lives at risk for the fun and enjoyment of athletics. The thing to remember is this: Most sports injuries and deaths are preventable. With the NCSS PREPARE course, we can prevent injuries and help save lives. Your financial support will help NCSS both maintain and continuously update the PREPARE course, as well as expand the program to reach more coaches across the country.
