Trinity College is committed to the development of a safe intercollegiate athletics program by protecting the health and well being of its student-athletes, as well as by providing a safe sport environment. The NCAA Sports Medicine Handbook developed by the NCAA Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sports and the National Athletic Trainers Association’s Policy Statements are used as a guide in establishing recommendations and procedures for preventing and managing athletic related injuries at Trinity College.

Sports Medicine Services Are Provided for:

      1. Trinity College Varsity Intercollegiate Athletics.

      2. Visiting Intercollegiate teams scheduled to participate at Trinity College.

At Trinity College, the evaluation and care for athletic injuries/illnesses is based on standing orders. These protocols are established between the team physician, the university physician and Trinity College Sports Medicine Department.

Providing effective quality health care to our student-athletes requires the group effort of the sports medicine team at Trinity College. The sports medicine team consists of the team physician(s); the certified athletic trainers and student athletic trainers; the certified strength and conditioning specialists; and various consultants in the areas of cardiology, neurology, primary care, orthopedic specialties, dentistry, ophthalmology, and counseling.
