The story of his save includes:
• a volleyball coach trained in CPR multiple times who began compressions
• an athletic director who ran for the AED
• a track coach, also an off-duty police officer, who applied the AED #SaferSidelines

Everyone who employs or works with ATs should take a listen to this! ATs don’t get an offseason…and they work over breaks and the summer…make sure you are respectful of their time and value what they bring to your programs!
Athletic trainers don’t get an offseason and they rarely get a break.
While others reset, they’re still showing up, putting athletes first every single day. Too often, “they get lost in the sauce.”
@WacoISD is changing that by scheduling meetings, staying connected, and making sure their trainers are seen, supported, and valued.
Because supporting those who care for athletes isn’t optional, it’s necessary.

Thank you, Athletic Trainers! As we wrap up #NATM2026, we celebrate the dedication, expertise, and commitment you bring to protecting the health and well-being of athletes every day.

National Athletic Training Month (NATM) is held every March to raise awareness of athletic trainers, health care professionals who prevent, diagnose and treat injuries and medical conditions. The 2026 tagline, chosen by members on social media, is "Care You Can Count On."

Adaptability: I think one reason that ATs face burnout is the constant need to adapt. Adapt to changing schedules. Adapt to different coaches’ communication desires, adapting to different protocols, adapting to do the best we can in inadequate facilities with inadequate resources

#SaferSidelines. @stephkuzy two for one on this thread!
Sad and scary news for the NJCAA community today, praying for all involved
The Iowa Lakes Community College baseball team was involved in a deathly crash while they were on their way to North Arkansas College for a 4 game series.
Players from Waukee Northwest, Saydel, Ballard, and Algona are on the current roster.

Love this message. As a former player, there was nothing worse than coaches wasting players time at the facility or keeping coaches long hours for no reason

'Every high school & college study demonstrates GC neither prevents concussion nor reduces forces.' NFL: 'no significant association between GC use and reduction in concussions.' Ball St "no reduction in overall [NFL] concussion rates following the Guardian Cap mandate."

NATA is deeply troubled by a recent social media post that publicly demeaned an athletic trainer while she was providing medical care during competition. Athletic trainers are licensed health care professionals, and disrespect or harassment toward anyone delivering care is unacceptable.
Athletic trainers work in high-pressure environments where patient safety, clinical judgment and professional trust must come first. Nearly 60% of NATA’s membership is represented by women, who have fought for decades to earn their place in professional sports medicine. NATA stands firmly behind athletic trainers and all medical professionals who provide care with integrity, expertise, and compassion. We must, and can, do better.
