King University

The King University Athletic Training staff consists of five full-time certified athletic trainers that provide athletic teams with coverage as well as a variety of other tasks.

The King Athletic Training staff is committed to providing personalized and comprehensive healthcare to the Tornado student-athletes. Our goal is to focus on the prevention of athletic injuries and illnesses. With the cooperation of our Athletic Training Program, we are able to provide the highest possible healthcare, as well as competence in areas such as injury evaluation, management, rehabilitation and counseling. By adhering to the National Athletic Trainers' Association (NATA) Code of Ethics and the Board of Certification's (BOC) Standards of Practice, the athletic training staff is committed to returning student-athletes to competition as soon as they are medically ready.

The staff Athletic Trainers work under the auspices of the National Athletic Trainers' Association (NATA) and the Tennessee Athletic Trainers' Society (TATS). The program is also greatly assisted by Dr. Bert Tagert M.D., the team physician.
