The athletic trainer’s purpose is to ensure the safety and well-being of your athlete.

➢ They are the point of contact for any concerns that you might have regarding an injury with your athlete.

➢ If you suspect an injury or have concern, PLEASE consult with them before taking them to the doctor.

➢ Most physicians are not trained in sports medicine or sports injury, and most often the result is missed time that is not necessary and with no return to play protocol or information of treatment of injury.

➢ If our trainers suspect that they need to go to a doctor, they will give them information on the correct physician to see and help set up a visit. Again, this is their priority, so please respect the job that they have and keep them in the loop.

➢ Please show up at 8am for treatment, treatment will not be given during the practice period, and you do not miss practice for treatment.
