Fall practice is underway — but the heat and humidity in the South aren’t done yet.

Heat illness doesn’t require a 100-degree day. It can happen during a completely normal practice when conditions are right and a coach doesn’t know what to look for.

Certified coaches know the warning signs, know when to pull an athlete, and know how to respond before things escalate. Make sure your staff is prepared.

Share this with every coach in your program.
