Klimo for Schools
Heat planning for high school athletics
Plans for outdoor practices and games change with the heat. Klimo helps athletic trainers, directors, and coaches review forecasts, monitor current conditions, and implement policies as they plan activity.
Plan the session
Review forecast WBGT and the policy that applies to the activity.
Check conditions
Take any on-site readings your policy requires and revisit conditions during practice.
Adjust activity
Follow applicable guidance for breaks, equipment, intensity, timing, or suspension.
Illustrative workflow · Measurement and monitoring requirements vary by policy
KLIMO FOR SCHOOLS
How it works
Klimo WBGT puts current and forecast environmental heat stress in view for the places and times your teams are active. Use that context to anticipate changes, then apply the heat-safety policy that governs each activity.
Forecast and modeled conditions support planning. Follow your policy for required on-site measurements, monitoring intervals, activity modifications, and documentation.
How WBGT thresholds work ↗Look ahead
Review forecast WBGT for the practice or game location and time.
Check conditions
Monitor current estimates and collect any on-site readings your policy requires.
Apply your policy
Staff decide when to modify activity and record readings or decisions as required.
WHY WBGT MATTERS
WBGT is the gold standard for high school athletics
WBGT accounts for air temperature, humidity, sunlight, and wind. That broader view of environmental heat stress helps staff plan outdoor athletics beyond what air temperature or the heat index alone can show.
Practice schedules
Look at the hours ahead when choosing when and where teams will train.
Activity modifications
Applicable guidelines may call for changes to duration, rest breaks, equipment, or intensity.
Teams across campus
Athletic trainers, coaches, and administrators need a clear picture as conditions change across sports and facilities.
BUILDING FOR SCHOOL ATHLETICS
Make heat planning easier to coordinate.
Heat decisions can involve several sports, fields, schedules, and staff members at once. Klimo Insights is developing organization-oriented tools to help schools and districts coordinate that work.
These broader capabilities are in development. Tell us how your athletic program shares heat information today and where better software could help.
