Partially VerifiedIssue ID C06

Athletic trainer support

June 2025 booster minutes document that athletic trainer support was raised and that the coach was directed to school administrators. The user later reported firsthand that no athletic trainer was visible on the field at the September 30, 2026 JV game and that this was the second such occurrence that season. Official staffing and medical coverage records are still needed.

Examples from the record

Reported example: At two scheduled home JV games during the 2026 season, a firsthand account states that no athletic trainer was visible on the field. Official coverage schedules, assignment records, and any alternate qualified coverage plan are still needed.

What the evidence proves

Raises a direct student safety and administrative oversight question because trainer support had already been an identified issue in 2025 and the user reports repeated lack of coverage during 2026 JV games.

What it does not prove

The current record does not establish why coverage was absent or whether another qualified medical provider was available.

What is still missing

Official athletic trainer coverage schedule for 2026 football, assignment records for the two JV games, any substitute or emergency coverage plan, injury response logs, and confirmation whether district or school policy required trainer presence at those games.

Student impact

Medical coverage affects player safety during football contests.
