HHSM On-Site at WECMRD Eagle County Lacrosse Jam
Howard Head Sports Medicine volunteered their services at the WECMRD Eagle County Lacrosse Jam on May 8-9, working with over 50 youth teams to meet their sports medicine needs. Howard Head Sports Medicine supplied first aid needs for participants and spectators out of their mobile sports medicine unit, which was staffed by athletic trainers and physical therapists.
“Howard Head Sports Medicine enjoys the opportunity to support local community programs”, says Brandie Yeik, Athletic Trainer for Howard Head. “I had so many parents and participants thank us for being involved in the tournament, I think it gives them a strong sense of safety knowing that there are health professionals at the tournament in case an injury happens.”
According to WECMRD Tournament Director, Brad Johnson, the event was a roaring success, and one of the largest turnouts in the events history.
Clark Mercer a coach for the Eagle Bandits second and third graders says, “It’s nice to have the trailer, and know that you can just walk over and get check out.”
