Tips for Getting Started
WHAT CAN OUR ATHLETE CAPTAIN DO FOR US?
All of our athlete captains have different skill sets and interests. We recommend asking them how they would like to be involved. Here are a few ideas to get them started:
- Make a motivational video
- Lead a workout or stretching session
- Virtual or In Person Meet & Greet - hear their story
- Partner Workouts - pair your captain with a team member to keep each other accountable while you train for the Plane Pull
- Invite them to your on site fundraiser
- Ask them to be part of a meeting!

- Organize a Yappy Hour to socialize and get to know each other
