Dear USASF Parents and Athletes:

You asked for it, we're delivering. We've added another BOLT leadership workshop for high school-aged athletes to our summer schedule, and I hope you'll join me and the leadership facilitators on August 19 from 11 am - 3 pm EST. Registration details can be found below.

Athletes interested in applying for the AAC (Athlete Advisory Council) that haven't attended a BOLT workshop or the National Meeting this summer— this is your last chance to fulfill the pre-requisite before the application deadline of September 1. LEARN MORE.

B.O.L.T. (Bettering our Leaders of Tomorrow) workshops are designed for high school-aged All Star athletes and are only offered to USASF members. This virtual workshop will help you learn about communication and leadership styles that will benefit you as you navigate All Star, school and beyond. B.O.L.T. workshops activate young cheer and dance leaders to become strong peer role models who:

• put team first,
• fully commit to their All Star club, and
• learn to make the choices that lead to accomplishment.

PERKS OF BOLT
