2016 Annual Report

Middle School Gymnast Pain-Free after Months of Back Pain

Makenna Lord’s low back pain started during gymnastics practice. She’d had this pain off and on for months. She had been toughing it out, but couldn’t ignore it anymore. Fortunately, her school was part of Safe Sports’ Middle School Sports Safety Infrastructure Project so her mom had heard about the drop-in clinic.

The pain had Makenna limping when she arrived. It was burning and achy all day and it got worse with activity. She was evaluated, treated and taught a home program. She and her mom worked on the home program together. When she returned to the drop-in clinic with no limp, 0/10 pain, and feeling 90% better!

Makenna has returned to gymnastics without a problem…she has checked in a couple times and she is doing great! Makenna and her mom send their thanks to Safe Sports donors who helped Makenna safely back to sports.

“I’m sure I would have just kept playing if the athletic trainer wasn’t there. But he helped

me understand that it really wasn’t in my best interest. And he helped me deal with it...

because I was devastated.” DC - Student Athlete

Sports help kids succeed. Safety is the first step.

You Made a Difference in 2016

This young man suffered one of 1,200 injuries that were managed by athletic trainers you made possible. Every year athletes step on the field (or ice!) under the watchful eye of Safe Sports athletic trainers about 100,000 times.

More than 3,000 athletes took concussion baseline tests in 2016. That meant that when a young athlete had a concussion - which they did over 200 times in 2016 - clinicians had info to rely on to safely return them to play.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is the leading killer of young athletes. Your donations support a focused campaign to try to ensure there’s always someone trained to care for a collapsed athlete until trained help arrives. Athletes Saving Athletes(tm), hands-only CPR/AED for health classes, CPR/First Aid for coaches are all part of the plan.

Every gift supports efforts to improve knowledge and sports safety.Thank you, 2016 donors!!

“When my son got hurt, the athletic trainer took care of his ankle and his broken heart. He was still laughing at her jokes when he came home from watching his team practice.

It made a huge difference for him.”Memorial High School parent
