Thank you to all the athletic trainers in Section XI who make a difference in the lives of student-athletes and coaches!

March is National Athletic Training Month, an opportunity to spread awareness of the impact athletic trainers have on work, life, and sport.

The slogan for this year’s campaign is “Essential to Healthcare,” which calls attention to an athletic trainer’s commitment to helping people prevent injuries and stay active and healthy.

This was demonstrated more than ever throughout the pandemic, where athletic trainers stepped up to provide COVID-19 screenings, administer tests, and assisting in the implementation of protocols across settings.
