Athlete Safety

At CheerVille, keeping everyone healthy and safe is our main priority. We are committed to protecting our athletes, coaches, and volunteers. View CheerVille’s policies and resources aimed at protecting the physical, mental, and emotional health of our community..

OUR CHEERLEADING SAFETY POLICY

CheerVille proudly partners with The Sports Compliance Company, a leading entity in Athlete Safety. This partnership equips our CheerVille staff with comprehensive training and education solutions, including access to an anonymous Established Reporting System.

The Sports Compliance Company offers an independent hotline for athletes, families, and staff, allowing confidential reporting of ethics or misconduct concerns both within and outside our facility. This service is not exclusive to CheerVille and can be utilized in any situation involving abuse or misconduct.

Available 24/7/365, representatives can be reached through phone, text, or web chat, with support provided in both English and Spanish. The system ensures same-day filing to law enforcement and the membership organization for applicable reports. Importantly, all good-faith reports are legally protected from retaliation. Call 1-800-879-SAFE or visit www.sportscompliance.com for next steps.
