A large portion of the participation in sport in Australia occurs at a junior level. Much of this involvement occurs through students who participate in a variety of after-school and inter-school activities. These students often carry this past their schooling, and go on to complete further sporting exploits or involvement outside of the school environment.
As such SMA believes it is pivotal for school students to have a basic understanding of sports injury management and prevention, so that they can begin to understand and help manage their own safe involvement in sport and recreation.
The following courses are offered by SMA-SA for school students: |
