The West Coast Sports Medicine Foundation - Team To Win held its first VIRTUAL Summer Mentoring camp which ran through August 15th and 16th, 2020.
With over 150+ registrants, the camp provided an opportunity for students to engage with ATCs in the high school, college, and professional sectors of athletics. Lecture topics included: Basic Anatomy, Understanding Vital Signs
“Preventing Shock”, First-Aid Care, Joint Actions & Range of Motion, Concussions, and various taping workshops.
We received great feedback from our campers, here are some below!
"This was the first sports medicine camp/workshop I've ever participated in and it was worth
it since I plan on becoming an athletic trainer myself."
"I loved how all the athletic trainers were passionate with what they were talking about. It
really made this virtual experience really interesting"
