🚨 Safety Updates for PCA Members 🚨
The PCA National Safety Committee has recommended extending the deadline for upgrading body protectors (to 2018 models and above) from 2025 to 2026. This change has been approved by the PCA board and will be reflected in the National Gear Rules following the Gear Committee’s review next month.
In addition, PCA's Concussion Policy has been updated! Starting September 30th, riders must now wait 14 days (up from 48 hours) after being symptom-free before returning to activity, based on the latest sports safety research.
