MIAA ATHLETIC HEALTH SERVICES STAFF

 American Medical Association

Head Certified Athletic Trainer

The AMA believes that the Board of Education and the Tennessee Department of Health should encourage that an adequate Athletic Medicine Team should be established in every school that has a sports program.  The Athletic Medicine Team should be composed of a Tennessee licensed physician, an athletic health coordinator (preferably a NATABOC-certified athletic trainer), and other necessary personnel.                                                                          

The AMA urges school administrators, athletic directors, and coaches to work to undertake appropriate measures to provide services of a NATA Certified Athletic Trainer to all Memphis City Schools Athletes.
