Welcome to Ferrum College Athletics!
Our Certified Athletic Trainer's (ATC's) are dedicated to injury prevention, emergency response protocols, enhancing performance, as well as emphasizing the overall well being of every student-athlete. Our mission is to provide evidence-based care through assessment and injury management, encompassing individualized treatment plans as well as sport-specific rehabilitation. In Sports Medicine, we strive to create a safe and supportive environment where athletes can thrive and achieve their personal best in both athletics and academics.
Being able to provide proper medical care starts with having accurate medical history information for each student-athlete. Please use the appropriate links in regards to the required Sports Medicine pre-participation items that you will need to complete and submit by August 1st, 2025. These items must be completed prior to participating in athletics at Ferrum College.
