Safety note: Use safe space, good form and parent awareness. Stop if anything hurts.
Optional parent-controlled check-in: Some challenges may include an optional check-in. Players can show a parent what they completed, and the parent may choose to forward a note, photo, short video, or completion update to the coaches. Players should not send photos or videos directly to coaches. Sharing is optional; there is no public leaderboard, ranking or penalty for not submitting anything.
