athletic training information
Dear visiting athletic trainer(s) and teams,
On behalf of our athletic training staff at Arizona Christian University, we would like to welcome you to ACU and the Phoenix area for the 2014-15 season. Our
athletic training room is located on the west end of Fultz Memorial Gymnasium.
Athletic Training Staff
Head Athletic Trainer
TBA
Normal Hours of Operation:
Open - Close
Athletic Training Services:
The athletic training room will be open approximately two hours before each game/match and remain open approximately 30 minutes after the contest. The
athletic training room offers a variety of hot and cold modalities.
Water, ice bags (flexi-wrap), water bottles, cups (outdoors only), portable table (outdoors only), towels (indoors only) and bio-hazard supplies will be provided
on your sidelines. Emergency supplies, including an AED, crutches, spine board, vacuum splints, etc. will also be available should the need arise. An Arizona
Christian University certified athletic trainer will be on-site for all home athletic competitions.
Teams Traveling Without a Certified Athletic Trainer, Emergency Procedure:
If your team is traveling without a certified athletic trainer, advanced notification is appreciated. A written request from a coach or physician must accompany
the team in order to use any modality other than ice or heat (hot packs). In addition, ACU athletic training personnel will be happy to assist your team with its
taping and wrapping needs, as long as the visiting team provides their own taping supplies. Please contact TBA (Head Athletic Trainer Info) to make special
arrangements. The on-site Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC) that is working the event will be in charge of the athlete in the event of an EMERGENCY until emergency responders arrive.
Practice Policy:
Visiting teams must give 48 hour prior notice to the athletic training room if they are planning on practicing and need athletic training services. For practice
times please contact Assistant Athletic Director of Game Management & Facilities, Brad Rogers at 602-386-4183.
We hope this information will be helpful with your plans for competition at Arizona Christian University. If you have any other questions or concerns, please do
not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
TBA –Trainer Info
