T
he location for the return of
the in-person National Athletic
Trainers Association (NATA)
Clinical Symposia & AT Expo was a
fitting choice. While Philadelphia was
the city of choice for a conglomerate
of leaders to choose freedom in the face
of tyranny during the birth of our nation,
it was also where athletic trainers
were " reunited AT last " to exchange
ideas and find new ways to pioneer
their industry.
And though for many attendees it
was a return to the 73rd NATA convention - a sign of normalcy after two
years of virtual substitutes - it was the first time as the managing editor
of Training & Conditioning that I was able to see the breadth of NATA
first-hand.
The labyrinth that is the Pennsylvania Convention Center only added to
the reach that was on display during that last week in June. It was a large,
diverse crowd eager to re-engage and interact over the course of four
days ahead of the Fourth of July.
And there were plenty of educational opportunities, from the Keynote
presentation, Lessons in Leadership, featuring NATA Past Presidents Julie
Max, M.Ed, ATC, and Marj Albohm, MS, AT Ret., and current President
Kathy Dieringer, Ed.D, LAT, ATC, about the challenges they've faced while
reflecting on their experiences in leadership. In addition to the return of
the AT Expo, attendees had the opportunity to earn 20 CEUs through
more than 140 educational sessions.
In this month's issue, the Player Health & Safety issue, you'll find
content on how to use the pool to build strength in student-athletes, a
new risk reduction program that reduces bacteria in athletic training and
weight rooms by 95 percent, and how college student-athletes deal with
food insecurity issues.
Additionally, we have our first-ever athletic trainer survey results. Not
only does this survey help shape our editorial direction for the coming
year, but also gives us a snapshot glimpse into what athletic trainers are
dealing with across the country.
And, of course, we have a wrap-up from all the sights of the 73rd NATA
Clinical Symposia & AT Expo.
Enjoy this month's issue! n
