FIRESTORM LAUNCH POLICY

A PARENT OR RESPONSIBLE ADULT REMAINS ONSITE.

For individual and duo training, the player’s parent, guardian, or designated responsible adult must remain within sight and able to interrupt the session. For group training, a parent or a second Fire FC approved adult must serve as the onsite session supervisor.

No trainer may transport a player, communicate privately with a minor, train in a private residence, or continue a session when the required supervising adult is absent.
