Compliance with safety standards: Did the cheerleading program comply with established safety standards and guidelines for cheerleading, such as those set by organizations like the National Federation of State High School Associations or the American Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Administrators?
Coach training and qualifications: Was the coach of the cheerleading team properly trained and qualified to lead the team, and were they following established coaching practices and procedures?
Negligence: Did the parties involved in the cheerleading program act negligently, such as by failing to provide proper training, equipment, or supervision, or by ignoring known risks or hazards?
