Dear Parents and Student-Athlete:

 

On behalf of Great River Health System we would like to welcome all new student athletes and returners to Southeastern Community College.  We would like to congratulate you on being part of SCC Athletics and look forward to working with you.

SCC has partnered up with Great River Health System to provide the highest quality and most comprehensive medical care as it pertains to your health and well-being.  This partnership includes athletic training services and the sports enhancement program.

The athletic training room and sports enhancement facilities are located on the Great River Health System campus allowing the student-athletes access too many different services. The athletic trainers are available during the week for SCC student athletes to get evaluated, treatment, rehabilitation and injury management as needed. Each student athlete at SCC undergoes a preseason concussion baseline testing consisting of the Impact Test, SCAT3, King-Devick and the Dynavision.

The Sports Enhancement Program is designed to promote student-athlete development in physical fitness and athletic ability. This comprehensive program incorporates some of the latest and basic methods to train the college’s full complement of athletic teams. Our fitness specialists focus on the drills that address quickness, reaction time, dynamic flexibility, and postural strength.   In addition, we train our athletes to perform according to the specific sport in which they participate.  The sport-specific programs are designed around the movements, skills, and energy systems utilized in that specific sport.

All SCC student-athletes will be receiving their sports physicals at Southeastern Community College by our team physicians from Great River Orthopedic Specialist.

Should you have any questions or concerns regarding any of these procedures please feel free to contact Sheena Abbott, Manager of Health Fitness and Athletic Training at (319) 768-4158, or send an e-mail to skabbott@grhs.net

 

Sincerely,

Great River Health System Athletic Training and Sports Enhancement Staff
