Are you a trained medical professional with a big heart and passion for sports? The Nutmeg State Games needs qualified health care providers to volunteer their time and services.

The sports medicine team includes dedicated professionals from the following fields: athletic training, chiropractic, medicine, osteopathy, naturopathy, podiatry, physical therapy, nursing, massage therapy, emergency medicine, and occupational therapy. You’ll watch the competition from the sidelines and courtside; observe the small and big hits, twists, and bangs; and be on your toes to care for the athlete in need. You’ll help insure the health and safety of the athletes to be able to compete at their full potential.

The games will be taking place July 26 to August 3 in the Danbury area. Please review the schedule and indicate your dates and times of availability. It can be found at: http://www.nutmegstategames.org/08sportsmedinfo.pdf.

First aid and sports medicine supplies and medi-bags will be provided. If you have your own bags, then supplies will be provided where needed and available.

To volunteer or for any question, call 860-528-4588 or visit www.nutmegstategames.org.
