As discussed at the coaches meeting we plan to have the Purpose Program presented to NW Coaches. It touches on a lot of issues regarding first aid, emergency prepardeness and emergancey planning that we as coaches need to know. Whether or not we have a good handle on these things I think it's a good idea to review and talk about them. So as I mentioned at the meeting Troy Kleese, Director of Athletic Training and Sports Medicine, Physiotherapy Associates, will do a presentation that outlines the following:
- Pre-participation information – health awareness
- Hydration
- Heat
- Bleeding
- Skin Infections
- Lightning
- Emergency Planning
- First Aid Kit
- Concussion
- Equipment
- Care of Injury on the Field
Meeting time: September 12th from 7pm – 8:30/9pm, (or whenever we are done with all questions/scenarios presented).
Location: Physiotherapy Associates – 5900 NW 86th Street – Suite 200 – Johnston (Intersection of 86th and Windsor).
If there are topics/questions/etc that you would like for Troy to prepare answers to in advance, just e-mail them to me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
Regardless of whether you have signed up or not please let me know whether you will be attending. It's a great oppurtunity and look forward to seeing you there.
Mark Hollister,
President Northwest Soccer Club
