Who Do We Serve
Athletic Trainers serve our Sport Club members. If you are not a participant of a Sport Club, you can not make an appointment
When to make an Appointment
If you are injured while participating in a sport club practice or game you are able to make appointments with an Athletic Trainer for 30-45 minute evaluation and/or rehabilitation sessions free of charge.
Athletic Trainers provide home event coverage for all on campus sport clubs deemed high risk. Moderate and low risk sport clubs have the ability to request ATs for large tournaments or events. Club presidents can do this by contacting their liaison. Based upon the events scheduled for the date of the event, the athletic training staff will decide if the availability allows for coverage to be provided.

Athletic Trainers (ATs) are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians to provide preventative services, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, and therapeutic rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. They are required to attain and maintain both a certification and a license in the state in which they work.
