The Anthony "Tony" Dougal Athletic Training Area at Harry Agganis Arena

The mission of the Sports Medicine Department at Boston University is to deliver the highest quality athletic training and sports medicine services to our student athletes. We focus on prevention, treatment, management and rehabilitation of athletic injuries. The sports medicine team is comprised of six full-time and four graduate-assistant athletic trainers who work under the supervision of three team physicans, specializing in orthopedic surgery and family medicine and are considered experts in the field of sports medicine. All members of the athletic training staff are nationally certified and licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Board of Professional Licensure.

The overall health and well-being of the student-athletes are enhanced through the CAATE-accredited education programs housed in BU's Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. There are currently over 80 students in the curriculum program, who in addition to their full academic courseload, complete clinical experience in athletic training rooms at BU and many other Boston area institutions. The sports medicine staff serve as adjunct clinical professors and teaching assistants in the undergraduate athletic training program. Similarly, all of the academic professors in the undergraduate program are available as adjunct clinical athletic trainers.

In 2005, the Anthony "Tony" Dougal Athletic Training Area in Agganis Arena and the athletic training room in the Aquatic Center were completed, bringing the total number of athletic training rooms in the department to five. The main athletic training facility will remain in the Case Athletic Center, with additional satellite rooms located at Walter Brown Arena and the Track and Tennis Center.
