Hint: It goes a lot deeper than just following ADA rules, and it applies to your event, no matter whether you're working with traditional competitive athletics or performance sports (like gymnastics or cheerleading).

 

That's important, vital information, but it's not all we have in this issue. We also take an in-depth look at permitting and working with authorities, effective relations with the media, and ways to attract spectators to your event.
