As a part of our overall service of the student-athlete communities, we work daily with certified athletic trainers from around the country. We hear about the challenges that they face with their around-the-clock schedules, putting their athletes first and working to grow in their chosen professions. They’re trusted with the most intimate details of a student-athlete’s life, along with their overall health and recovery. It’s far more than the taping and health care management. These men and women are on the front lines of sharing information about drug abuse, dietary supplement information and overall well-being.

It’s for these reasons that Drug Free Sport created a
Continuing Education Award, specific to certified athletic trainers
working in high schools and collegiate communities. In the past five years,
Drug Free Sport has awarded more than $23,000 to talented health care
professionals. Here’s a few of our recent winners:
All
applications must be completed by Friday, March 31, 2017. Awards, at a minimum of $1,000 each, will be
announced by the week of May 1, made payable to the employing educational
institution or non-for-profit entity and the certified athletic trainer.
