🧠 Coaches, trainers, school staff — this one is for you.

You don't have to be a certified athletic trainer to need to recognize a concussion on the sideline.

Dr. Phil Vardiman, PhD, LAT, ATC, CSCS opens Friday's program at the 23rd Annual Wichita SMS with:

"Building a Concussion Identification System Into Your Game Day Protocols"

You'll walk away able to:
→ Describe key components of a concussion identification system
→ Recognize visual signs and symptoms in real time
→ Explain how to implement a protocol — even if you're not the team ATC

Whether you're a coach, trainer, PE teacher, or clinician — knowing how to spot a concussion protects the people in your care.

💪 "We Are All Athletes."

That's the premise of one of this year's most exciting sessions at the 23rd Annual Wichita SMS.

Logan Clothier, MS BS NSPA presents:
"How to Select the Right Exercise and Intensity for Athletes of All Ages"

Your 16-year-old sprinter is an athlete. Your 72-year-old staying active is an athlete. Your post-surgical patient learning to walk again is an athlete.

This session gives you the framework to meet every one of them exactly where they are — with the right exercise selection and the right intensity for their individual goals.

Perfect for personal trainers, coaches, exercise physiologists, OTs, PTs, and anyone helping clients build or rebuild physical function.
