Information from Robb Seahorn @ Champion Physical Therapy in Knoxville: (Robb is a physical therapist and is originally from the White Pine area as well a JCHS Graduate)

***I am now offering comprehensive therapeutic concussion management. The ImPACT Application System is used world wide and has been a leader in research and management of concussions. Much of the work has been based on University of Pittsburg's program which sees 20,000 concussions per year. They have been studying this complicated injury for many years, well before it came into national prominence. Being certified in their program allows us to provide baseline testing (pre-season testing) to determine the cognitive, visual, vestibular and balance function. If a concussive event occurs, we can retest the athlete and can provide a much more accurate assessment of their recovery prognosis and set a specialized plan of care that will guide the athlete comprehensively through their recovery. This can be of great benefit to the physician to help determine the best course of action. Having dealt with many of these injuries over the last 20 years, I have felt, at times, I could have done a better job. These are complicated injuries that can not just be told to go home and rest till your symptoms go away. Research shows it is critical to address the involved area of the brain to assist and guide the athlete thru their recovery. This system provides a proven assessment and approach to accurately diagnose the involved areas of the brain that need to be rehabilitated. In conjunction with the athletes physician, we will be able to set a comprehensive treatment plan to guide the athlete safely back to their sport. We would never send an athlete with an ACL sprain home to just rest. We would evaluate them, rehabilitate the injury, and perform sport specific assessments to ensure they were ready to compete again in their sport. I'm excited to be able to provide this service. We can evaluate athletes from 8 years and older. The testing takes approximately 45 minutes including instruction of the test, taking the computerized test, and perform a balance assessment. Please spread the word and don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Feel free to call my cell: 865-919-0029 or email me at robbseahorn@gmail.com.***

If you did not turn in equipment the last Saturday of spring practice you have another opportunity to turn it in tomorrow 5-11-16 at the field between 5:30 pm and 6:30pm. Please have it all in the bag and child's name on a sheet of paper in the bag.

The last day of spring practice is Saturday (which usually is not a actual practice day). Equipment is due turned back in by Saturday 4-30-16. We will be there at 9:30am to start collecting equipment. Please wash uniform and put back in bag with your name on a sheet of paper in the bag. If you will not be able to turn in your equipment by Saturday please turn it in before (you will get it back in July). We will be placing the custom Jersey order after spring practice if there is anyone who still wishes to order one for their child please see Joel Henderson to pick your # and pay. Also remember if you have drinks and stuff at the field please throw it away before leaving. We are all volunteers at the field and we are having to spend extra time after practice cleaning up.
