Heart Health

A Message From Our Sponsor;

As you hit the field hard, honing your skills, it’s important to remember safety precautions to ensure that you and your teammates prevent injuries that will keep you from playing the game you love. We tend to think of preventing injuries like broken bones, torn ligaments, or concussions. Heart health shouldn’t be sidelined.

Athletes and their families are better equipped to prevent situations from happening if they know the signs to watch for. If during practice, a game, or any physical activity, you experience the below warning signs, please seek medical attention as soon as possible:

Passing out

Dizziness

Chest Pain

Shortness of breath

Seizures

We are here to support NORTAC athletes and their families in staying heart healthy. If you have any concerns, we are here and can help evaluate your symptoms and create an individualized treatment plan.
