Knee Injury Prevention Program offered by Mercy Athletic Trainer Nicole Schreiber - CONSENT FORM

Hello Student Athletes,

We have the opportunity to participate in an ACL prevention program study here at Mercy this winter. The program will include participating in the Henry Ford Health System ACL prevention program for nine weeks in the weight room (or other available space, if the weight room is occupied). There will be two sessions scheduled per week, for approximately one hour each. I will supervise each of these sessions. Before you begin, you will go through a series of functional movement tests. We will video record these tests to assess your stability, flexibility, and balance. Once the nine-week program is complete, we will retest and re-video tape you. Please note that we need people who are committed to completing the whole nine week program. Space is limited, so acceptance into the program will be on a first come, first serve basis. Please talk this over with your parents and email me if you are interested in participating. You and your parents will need to fill out this consent form before you begin.

The program would start the week of January 9, 2012 and finish the week of March 5, 2012. This will not interfere with any other conditioning program that you may already be doing to prepare for sports.

Thanks.

Nicole Schreiber MA, AT, ATC - Mercy Athletic Trainer
