New York State Clinic / IN-PERSON

Learning Objectives:
• Recognizing and responding to emergency situations in the training and conditioning environment
• Discuss how to recognize and respond to an athlete collapse
• Cover the common causes of sudden collapse (sudden cardiac arrest, sickle cell trait, asthma, heat stress, etc), clinical presentation, and how to respond based on the cause of collapse

The main objective of the presentation is to discuss how as coaches, the impact we make on our athletes goes beyond the X's and O's of the science behind strength and conditioning. We will discuss how to make an impact as a strength and conditioning coach, broken down into different categories: relationship building, culture building, personal/ professional development, and mentorship.
