Description

- Swimming, cycling and gymnastics are three very popular sports that people of all ages participate in. However, the rate with which these events have athletic trainers present, is much lower than other sporting events, particularly in the secondary school setting. Like all sports, injuries happen and often the provider has not had any specialized training on how to manage and treat these injuries with a specialized return to play in mind. This effects athletic trainers success in prevention, evaluation, rehabilitation and returning to sport.

- By participating in this program, the participant will have the ability to increase their accuracy and consistency with injury assessment. By utilizing differential diagnosis skills with regard to the unique demands that athletes of these sports face. This increase in understanding, consistency and accuracy will lead to improved efficiency in treating the injury, as well as decreased game time lost due to the injury. This is because accurate diagnosis and understanding of the nuances of the sports, leads directly to appropriate care.
