After the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, the ATSC collected a number of supplies for the athletic training program at Southern Miss University.
Besides volunteering, you can see this group of around 25 students working concessions for the home volleyball matches as well as playing ball boys and girls for the women's soccer team during matches.
This year the organization is interested in implementing an outreach program for local high school students in order to raise awareness and interest for the athletic training program.
It may seems like this group is all work and no play, but they find time to wind down through cooking out, tailgating, movie nights and bowling nights.
They also enjoy an annual trip to the Mid-Atlantic Training Association conference in Virginia Beach, VA. During the conference, students learn about various topics and present case studies of injuries they have encountered.
The mission of the ATSC reflects the overall goals of the Athletic Training Program by providing students with the understanding of the commitment to individual athletes as well as the community, which essential in pursing a career in the field.
