After-School Safety Program

The mission of Safe Sport Zone is to provide a safer environment for after-school events. Over 95 percent of the public attends an event for the purpose of enjoying or participating in that event. Unfortunately, the other 5% have a different agenda that is disruptive and counterproductive. This counterproductive and disruptive element is less likely to participate if they have to disclose their identity; it is not worth it for the troublemakers. By providing security at our gates, as a ticket purchaser is required to show an ID matching the name on their ticket to gain entry into an event. Safe Sport Zone, along with the support of the national organizations, the NIAAA, the NFHS, and ESPN RISE are asking schools to identify all participants who enter high school events. This additional level of security is available for a nominal security fee, paid by the event attendee, with no cost to the school or school district.
