ATHLETIC TRAINING

Athletic trainers (ATs) are highly skilled health care professionals who work with the FSU athletics teams and oversee injury prevention, assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation as well as provide medical coverage at practices and games, to advise on and execute plans to address issues such as emergency and preventative care, environmental conditions, facility and equipment safety, and other sports-related matters. They are board certified (BOC) and governed by both the National Athletic Training Association (NATA) as well as the MI Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA). The FSU athletic trainers are part of both the Great Lakes Athletic Training Association (GLATA) and the Michigan Athletic Training Society (MATS).
