Sports Medicine

Los Lunas Schools may offer a sports medicine plan as a component of the interscholastic athletic program. This includes the services of full time certified/licensed athletic trainer for each high school, as budget and availability of a qualified individual exists, along with the support of voluntary student trainers.

Sports medicine is an integral part of athletics, including the medical supervision of training and competition of student athletes. Athletic trainers, with the aid of student trainers, are responsible for prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of injuries. The athletic trainers will decide when an athlete is able to practice, compete, or re-enter the game. Trainers will report directly to the Athletic Coordinator.
