Competition Safety Recommendations
Emergency Preparedness
Establish a communication plan in case of emergencies, including a designated meeting spot and alternative contact methods if phone service is unavailable.
Ensure team members’ phones are charged throughout the weekend and ensure some members carry portable chargers.
Encourage team members to share locations with one another or their liaisons during competition weekend.
Make certain team members have readily available access to a copy of travel itineraries, venue addresses, and emergency contacts.
Communication and Support
Maintain open communication channels between your team and liaisons throughout the weekend.
Check in with each other regularly, especially during travel periods and social events.
Communicate openly about any safety concerns or discomfort they may experience. Speak up if you feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
Transportation Safety
Travel in groups or by buddy system whenever possible, especially when moving between venues, attending social events or exploring the area. Make sure you are always traveling with someone who has a secure hotel key.
Avoid traveling alone, especially during late hours or in unfamiliar areas.
Use trusted transportation services such as licensed taxis, rideshare apps, or prearranged competition shuttles. Avoid using public transportation after dark.
If traveling by foot, stick to well-lit and populated areas, especially at night.
Be aware of surroundings and avoid displaying valuable items.
