Jersey Athletic Training

Our Governor has proclaimed March as National Athletic Training Month

March is National Athletic Training Month. Stop by the ATR to fill out a slip (or all 4) to observe the month! I appreciate my Athletic Trainer because AT’s are important because My AT helped me An injury or condition from “head to toe” that an AT can help us with is

3 Athletic Trainers in George Havens Gym tonight as we host the 3A Boys’ Regional Championship between the @TriadKnights and @ESTLFlyersbball Thank you to both schools for prioritizing your athletes’ health! @ILAthTrainers @IHSA_IL @IhsaSmac

Things like this happen. And 2 soccer players have been struck by lightning in Indonesia in the last 12 months. This is why we take the most extreme measures to keep athletes and fans safe!

My sincerest THANK YOU to this crew who helped me all season long! Thank you, Ava, for your 3 years of service. Happy senior night to Alex and Ava!!

Week 9 of @ILAthTrainers #SafetyInSports topic is AT Value This image shows only the totals from Fall Sports 2022 Think about how much money having an AT at your school can save your Student-Athletes and their families! Last fall alone, that number was $13,830 #ILsafesports

Emergency Action Plans include maps of your venue to make it easy for EMS. #atsafesports @ILAthTrainers

Week 4: Our coaches are prepared and know where our athletic facility AEDs are, because we send and discuss our Emergency Action Plans (EAP) yearly. When you’re at a venue, look around and take note of the nearest AED, it could save a life!! @ILAthTrainers #ATSafeSports

Week 3: Last night under the Friday Night Lights we mixed some “Blurple” Gatorade. Gatorade is packed with electrolytes needed for hydration. Sodium, potassium to name a couple. #ATSafeSports @ILAthTrainers

How much water are you drinking?

Last week was no cake walk, but we must take care of our student athletes. Don’t dwell on the negatives of modifications, create something positive! While practicing 7:30-9:15 isn’t ideal, we had some of our best practices yet! #Week2 #HeatSafety #ATSafeSports @ILAthTrainers

You never know where the day will take you as an Athletic Trainer. Mr. Steinkuehler and I have our athletic teams prepared for tonight. We had to improvise and get water and ice a different way due to the boil order.

Week 1 of #SafetyInSports is all about equipment fitting. The Riddell SpeedFlex has 5 air pockets that can be adjusted for each player. Also, the bottom chin straps pull like a zip-tie. Convenience is key, but safety is most important! @ILAthTrainers @JCHSAthletics

Day 1 of fall sports in Illinois! We also have a light drizzle. Feels like October, but I’ll take it!

Stole from @Ltrainer12 Don’t wait until the last minute! If you don’t have your physical when practice starts, you won’t practice

Spent the day in Belleville at the @SWC_AT Seminar learning and growing. Thank you to the presenters for very applicable information!
