ATHLETIC TRAINING ROOM
The Athletic Training facility is located in the Harold Alfond Center adjacent to the gymnasium.
Athletic Training services will be available before and after all athletic contests. Pre-game preparation will be provided to visiting athletes; however we do ask that you provide your own supplies. A Certified Athletic Trainer will be present at all home contests. Those teams traveling with a Certified Athletic Trainer will have full usage of the athletic training facility but are asked to make SJC Athletic Training staff aware of any special arrangements one may need.
