Athletic Trainer Apprentice

I am volunteering with the athletic trainer for the Tennessee Valley Vipers, an arena football team in Huntsville, Alabama. I am doing this to help me be eligible for the MTSU college major to obtain my athletic trainer's degree. I am also doing this because it has turned out to be a lot of fun! I work with the professional athletic trainer for the team. He's a great guy, and has been very patient and willing to teach me many things. I have learned about treatment for injured players, and have also been allowed to help with some of them.
