We need to shift the paradigm (pardon the cliche) about hard-ass coaches getting optimal results. Abusive language doesn't inspire--it just provokes fear. The best leaders have high expectations and treat others with respect, regardless of the environment.

New Washington state law gives K-5 students at least 30 minutes of daily recess. It prohibits using physical activity as punishment and discourages withholding recess for disciplinary/academic reasons. https://t.co/yAhZZGJsoR

Summary of text in this article: Korey Stringer's death, in a way, saved Damar Hamlin's life. The same day Korey died, so did a high school athlete. And in the years since, there have been at least 440 more high school deaths. and 0 NFL deaths. 😲

Future of Sports recap: Health experts say it's time for more high schools to invest money into athletic trainers. Insurance companies can provide a valuable “carrot” to incentivize spending on ATs. https://t.co/248RFWnd89

Important work. Also need to study whether it increases head impact frequency, due to risk compensation behavior change.

[Julie Stamm, PhD, ATC @JulieStammPhD]

Guardian caps were shown to provide little protection in the field, outside of lab experiments. Could they provide some benefit? Maybe a little. But is it enough to make a significant difference? The evidence suggests it does not.

The income gap is becoming a physical-activity divide. @JonSolomonAspen: "Particularly for low-income kids, if they don’t have access to sports within the school setting, where are they going to get their physical activity? The answer is nowhere.” https://t.co/pYcl6mv0YL

"...he did over 300 push-ups as punishment for incorrectly performing assigned exercises over two days" [he is a middle school athlete]
Exercise should never be used as a punishment in sports!

Tune in tonight to @hbomax to see our team explain how you can be prepared to handle sudden cardiac arrest.

Special thanks to @DefibtechAEDs for the training AED used in the demo! #strive2protect

Our 4 hour #CORE4 programs give participants an opportunity to physically rehearse their EAP and emergency response through simulation. We are looking forward to this community event sponsored by @DYouville for ATs in the Buffalo, NY area!

I understand the RFU has voted to implement the below waist tackle trial from start of next season. All forms of game from National One and below. No peer reviewed evidence to explain reasoning for decision. Previous similar trial (below nipple) increased concussion frequency.

"the students became ill after a strenuous workout that involved more than 300 push-ups over a 60-minute period and that the impacted students were diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis (rhabdo)."

https://t.co/44RyE0OY90. Qualified health care professionals and proper emergency planning are essential for keeping sport participation safe. I appreciate being part of the dialogue.

[Sports Medicine Emergency Management @EmergencySports]

Clear communication and calm in the face of chaos! Very well done by the first ATs and other responders.

How well do you convey your message and urgency in the face of an emergency?

Great audio clips throughout the event!

Take a moment listen

Last night, in an @NFL football game, a player suffered a medical emergency that required immediate on-field response.

@DrJamesBorchers explains why Emergency Action Plans are critical to sport.

I'd like to take a moment to educate on the key steps to treat sudden cardiac arrest in a collapsed athlete. Watch this video by @DreznerJon and @NFLHealthSafety Early CPR, Recognition & AEDs within 1-3min is the gold standard #BillsMafia @K_S_Institute https://t.co/e37skse5f0
