In the event of an emergency, you may be called upon to help retrieve equipment and/or help with the direction of EMS services (ambulance or fire truck).

  • Spine board and straps are located behind the taping tables, in the athletic training room (ATR).
  • Crutches are located next to the storage cabinet in the corner.
  • All athletes must have a physical done annually by an MD, DO, ARNP, or PA. They are provided by Atlantis University on specified dates usually at the beginning of
    each semester, but if you are able to get one on your own. However, our paperwork must be used.

  • A copy of your primary insurance card must be on file before you will be cleared to participate.
  • If you have asthma and use an inhaler, we will need an inhaler with your name on it in the ATR or in one of our sideline kits. If you have allergies and have an epi-pen, we will need one with your name on it in the ATR or in one of our sideline kits.
