Indiana has a live athletic training bill in legislation!
In response to the lack of athletic trainers in the state, Indiana lawmakers have introduced House Bill 1185. The bill aims to support rural athletic trainers by funding a grant to cover living expenses in exchange for a two-year commitment to the area.
This fund would come from appropriations from the Indiana General Assembly, federal and private grants, and donations made to the state department.
West Washington's Athletic Director Darrin Russell stated that athletic programs without athletic trainers are at the mercy of when a local hospitals and clinic's availability for injured athletes to get in to do the therapy, so that requires athletes to miss a half day of school to get proper evaluation and rehabilitative care.
