Podcast: What we can all do (as gym owners, parents, and friends) to protect athletes
You may be wondering "What can I do? How can I help?" as you read all these news articles. How do we protect athletes from this?
This topic was discussed in a recent episode of the "Let's talk cheer" podcast by Jason Larkins (American Cheer) with guest Dan Cotton (Oregon Dream Teams & police officer).
👉 It's worth listening to no matter if you're a gym owner, coach, parent, or athlete. The more we know about these topics, the better!
