Introducing CheerSafe.org!

USA Cheer has teamed up with the American Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Administrators (AACCA) to launch CheerSafe.org, a website for all of the most up-to-date cheer safety information.

We are proud to launch this site during March, which is National Cheer Safety Month. With CheerSafe.org, we want to make sure that all coaches, parents, administrators and cheerleaders have access to the truth about cheerleading safety. Visit often to stay current on the issue that is most important to all of us—cheer safety.

Coaches and cheerleaders can take the iCheerSafe pledge and parents can learn how they can ask the right questions when their children want to cheer.
Visit CheerSafe.org right now to subscribe to updates, read the latest studies and stay informed on this important issue.
