Step 1 - Take the Pledge
National Team Up Speak Up Week September 19-25, 2021 was the Concussion Legacy Foundation's annual event to spread the message that athletes can look out for each other when it comes to concussions. Coaches, team leaders, captains, athletic trainers, and parents shared videos of teams hearing the Team Up Speak Up speech throughout the week. Pledging to give or share speech is the first step to enter.

Step 2 - Give the Speech
Make sure your team hears these core principles of the Team Up Speak Up Speech from a coach, athletic trainer, or team leader. Record the speech so you can complete Step 3!
Point 1: We're a team, and teammates look out for each other.
Point 2: A teammate with a concussion needs your help.
Point 3: I expect you to speak up to a coach, athletic trainer, or team leader if you suspect a teammate has a concussion.
Check out our winning submission from 2019:
Step 3 - Post your video with #TeamUpSpeakUp
Post a video to social media of your team hearing the speech with the hashtag #TeamUpSpeakUp. Submit your entry anytime between August 25 and September 25, 2021 to be eligible.
The winning video will:
- Show a coach, team leader, or medical personnel giving the speech to their team.
- Inspire athletes to look out for each other when it comes to concussions.
