ATHLETIC TRAINING

Injuries happen. Whether it’s from playing an intramural sport or performing daily activities, our athletic trainers are here for all UW-Madison students. Available services include injury evaluation, treatment planning, rehabilitation, sports medicine education, and injury prevention.

Our athletic trainers also support more than 2,100 sport club athletes to ensure that they are safely performing at the highest level. With multiple locations across campus, flexible hours, and telemedicine options, there are a variety of ways for students to access their sports medicine needs.

Masks are still required in clinical spaces, including our Athletic Training room.
