NATA Now

The 75th NATA Clinical Symposia & AT Expo kicked off June 26 with a dynamic keynote address from Justin Wren, a humanitarian and MMA fighter with Bellator MMA.

Wren challenged NATA 2024 attendees with the question: “What meaningful impact would you make if only you knew you could?”

“Failure is a fuel that helps you understand what not to do,” said NATA Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility Council Chair Trevor Bates, DHSc, AT, during the Athletic Training Student Seminar (ATSS) Otho Davis Keynote Presentation, June 26.
 

Eleven teams will compete at the 2024 NATA Quiz Bowl, sponsored by Henry Schein at the 75th NATA Clinical Symposia & AT Expo in New Orleans. The quiz bowl features teams from each district in a Jeopardy-style competition. More than bragging rights will be on the line as the top three teams will receive prize packages from Henry Schein.

The 75th NATA Clinical Symposia & AT Expo, June 25-28 in New Orleans, features an array of opportunities for attendees to learn from and connect with thought leaders in the profession, one such being the Level Up! Theatre, located in NATA Connect in Hall G of the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center.

The Athletic Training Education Journal invites authors to submit manuscripts for a special series regarding clinical immersion in athletic training.

To commemorate Pride Month in June, NATA Now is highlighting student members who serve on their state, district or national LGBTQ+ Advisory Committee and sharing insight into their impact on the profession.
