🏈💙 HEY, PANTHER NATION! 🐾

We hope everyone is having a GREAT weekend! We are officially T-9 DAYS until kickoff, and the excitement is REAL! 🙌🏻

Our athletes have been working extremely hard all summer to prepare for the season, and behind the scenes, our Sports Medicine team has been putting in the work too. Our Athletic Trainer Aides have spent countless hours learning, practicing, showing up, and making sure they are ready to take care of our football players when it matters most.

We are SO thankful for every single one of these kiddos who has volunteered their time, stepped up when needed, and consistently shown up day in and day out. They have become such an important part of our program, and we truly couldn’t do this without them! 💙

🩺 On Friday, we tackled one of the most important emergency skills our aides will learn: SPINAL IMMOBILIZATION.

Our students spent time learning and practicing proper spine boarding techniques and what their roles may look like in the event of a suspected spinal injury. They worked through:

▪️ Properly maintaining C-spine stabilization
▪️ Log rolling an athlete
▪️ Helmet and shoulder pad removal
▪️ Coordinating a lift onto a spine board
▪️ Understanding individual roles during an emergency
▪️ Communicating effectively as a team

These skills are VITAL because emergencies don’t always happen according to plan. In the event of a serious injury, everyone on the field needs to know their role, communicate clearly, and trust the person working beside them.

Our goal is NEVER for something bad to happen to one of our athletes. But if it does, we want our staff and students to be as prepared as possible.

Practice makes progress. Consistency builds confidence. Preparation saves time. 💪🏻

And now we want to hear from YOU, Panther Nation! 👇🏻

💭 What is something YOU think is vital on the football field—during practice or a game?

💭 What do you think Sports Medicine staffs can do better to support athletes, coaches, and teams?

Drop your thoughts in the comments! We love hearing from our Panther community and learning from the people who support us every step of the way.

T-9 DAYS. ⏰🏈

The season is almost here. Our kids are ready. Our athletes are ready. And our Sports Medicine team is ready to put everything we’ve learned this summer into action.

HEY, PANTHER NATION! 🐾

We’ve got some AWESOME news to share!

Although we’re a little behind on making the announcement, it’s never too late to introduce an incredible addition to the Greenbrier Sports Medicine family!

Please help us welcome Faith Ventura to our athletic training staff!

Faith earned her Master’s in Athletic Training from Drake University after completing her Bachelor’s degree at Arkansas State University. She brings a passion for caring for student-athletes, a strong work ethic, and a wealth of knowledge that has already made a tremendous impact on our program.

From day one, Faith has been an incredible asset to our team, and we’re excited to watch her continue making a difference for our athletes, coaches, and school community. We know she’s going to do great things here at Greenbrier!

As the fall sports season gets underway, be sure to follow along with Greenbrier Sports Medicine to see what we’re up to behind the scenes—from practices and game days to athlete spotlights and everything in between.

We can’t wait to see Panther Nation packing the stands and cheering on our athletes this season!

Please join us in giving Faith a warm Panther welcome! 💙🐾

🏈💙 Hey, Panther Nation! 🐾

As we get closer and closer to the start of the school year, we wanted to take a moment to recognize some incredible people who have helped prepare our Sports Medicine program for the season ahead!

👏 A HUGE thank you to Stacey Garman Hughes for creating our Athletic Trainer Aide shirts for the 2026-2027 school year! These shirts will be proudly worn by our student aides on game days as they serve our Panther athletes, and we couldn’t be more excited about how they turned out!

We also want to extend our sincere appreciation to Greenbrier High School for purchasing the shirts and continuing to invest in our Sports Medicine program and the students who dedicate countless hours to caring for our athletes. The support from our school and community plays a huge role in helping our program grow and gives our students a sense of pride as they represent Panther Sports Medicine on Friday nights and throughout the year.

💙 Thank you, Stacey, for sharing your talent, and thank you, GHS, for believing in and supporting our students. Your generosity and encouragement mean more than you know!

As the first day of school gets closer, things are beginning to pick up around The Brier! We know we’ve been a little quiet lately, but it’s only because we’ve been hard at work preparing for another great year. Trust us… there’s plenty happening behind the scenes!

📣 Get ready, Panther Nation—we have lots of exciting updates, student spotlights, and behind-the-scenes content coming your way as we kick off the 2026-2027 school year.

We can’t wait to share this season with all of you!

HEY, PANTHER NATION! 🐾💙🙌🏻

We’ve introduced you to our Greenbrier Sports Medicine staff, but today we’re making a little switch! We’d like you to meet the newest member of our team this fall—our master’s athletic training student, Miss Kennedy Warren!

Kennedy is currently pursuing her Master’s in Athletic Training at UCA and will be completing her high school immersion experience with us this semester. From the very beginning, she has impressed us with her attention to detail, strong work ethic, eagerness to learn, and genuine passion for caring for student-athletes.

One of the things we’re most proud of in Greenbrier Sports Medicine is our partnership with UCA. Each year, we’re fortunate to mentor one or two athletic training students as they prepare to enter the profession. Not only does it allow them to gain valuable real-world experience, but it also strengthens the level of care our student-athletes receive every day. Investing in the next generation of athletic trainers is something we truly value.

As summer winds down, we’re getting closer and closer to football season and another exciting year of Panther athletics. Our team is preparing, our students are working hard, and we’re committed to getting 1% better every single day—both on and off the field.

Thank you to our parents, students, staff, and community for following along and supporting Greenbrier Sports Medicine. We can’t wait to share another season with you!

🏈💙 Hey, Panther Nation! We’re back! 🐾

We took a little time away to enjoy the summer break, recharge, and spend time with our families. Between vacations and some well-deserved rest and relaxation, our Sports Medicine team has been soaking up the downtime—but now it’s almost time to get back to work!

As we get ready to kick off another exciting stretch of summer activities, it’s time to continue recognizing the incredible students who make our Sports Medicine program so special.

Today, we’re proud to spotlight our final senior Athletic Trainer Aide… Carden Blue! 🙌

Carden has been an outstanding addition to our staff and someone we can always count on to step up and help wherever he’s needed. His knowledge of the game of football has been a tremendous asset, especially as some of our newer aides are still learning the ins and outs of the sport. He is always willing to answer questions, lend a hand, and support both his fellow aides and our athletes.

We’ll be back bright and early on Monday, ready to hit the ground running. We’ve missed our athletes and our student aides, but we’re so glad they had the chance to enjoy a well-earned break. Now it’s time to get back to doing what we love—learning, serving, and getting 1% better every single day.

And don’t worry… we’re not finished yet! We still have a few more amazing Athletic Trainer Aides to introduce, so stay tuned.

✨ The journey is just getting started!

🏈💙 Hey, Panther Nation! Did you miss us? 🐾

It’s been a busy week here at The Brier! Between summer practices, professional development, and team camps, our Sports Medicine staff has been on the move. We may have been a little quiet on social media, but don’t worry—we’re still here and just getting started!

As we continue introducing the incredible students who help keep our athletes healthy and supported, we’re excited to spotlight our next Athletic Trainer Aide…

🙌 Zoey Jones! 🙌

Like many students entering Sports Medicine for the first time, Zoey came in a little nervous. However, it didn’t take long for her to find her footing. She has embraced every opportunity to learn, picked up on things quickly, and has approached each new challenge with confidence and enthusiasm.

From day one, Zoey jumped right in and took ownership of working with our linemen—a group that has quickly become “her guys”—and she hasn’t looked back since. Her willingness to step outside of her comfort zone, combined with her positive attitude and ability to bring a smile to everyone around her, have made her a tremendous addition to our staff.

Whether she’s helping athletes, learning new skills, or cracking a joke to keep everyone smiling, Zoey brings energy and enthusiasm to everything she does. We are incredibly grateful for her hard work and dedication and are excited to watch her continue to grow throughout the year.

After a much-needed weekend off, we’ll be back at it next week with a full slate of practices, camps, and 7-on-7 action. There’s plenty more to come, and we can’t wait to share the journey with all of you!

✨ Stay tuned… the best is yet to come!

🏈☀️ Happy Monday Morning, Panther Nation! ☀️🏈

We’ve been up bright and early this morning, getting after it and making sure our football players are taken care of as we continue our summer workouts!

Today, we want to take a moment to recognize someone whose generosity and support mean so much to our Sports Medicine program.

💙 A HUGE thank you to Kalyla Johnson for generously donating snacks for our Athletic Trainer Aides! These students spend countless hours at practices, camps, and events throughout the summer helping keep our athletes healthy, hydrated, and ready to perform. Having snacks on hand helps keep our aides fueled and energized as they serve our Panther athletes each day.

The support of parents, families, and community members like Kalyla makes a tremendous difference in our program. Your kindness not only provides for our students but also reminds them that their hard work and dedication are appreciated.

👏 Thank you, Kalyla, for investing in our students and supporting Panther Sports Medicine. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity!

As the hottest part of the summer approaches, our Athletic Trainer Aides are stocked, fueled, and ready to continue serving our athletes. We’re proud of the work these students are putting in each day and excited to watch them continue to grow throughout the season.

Here’s to another great week of learning, serving, and getting a little better every day!

🏈 Two posts in one day?! We must be feeling extra excited, Panther Nation! 🐾

We couldn’t let the day come to an end without introducing another outstanding member of our Sports Medicine team. Help us welcome Senior Nick DeValle! 🙌

Although Nick is a new athletic trainer aide, he has already made a tremendous impact. From day one, he has demonstrated a strong work ethic, a willingness to learn, and a commitment to serving others. Whether it’s stepping in to help wherever needed, going the extra mile for our athletes, or pushing himself outside of his comfort zone, Nick consistently shows what it means to be a team player.

What makes Nick’s dedication even more impressive is that he balances his responsibilities as both an Athletic Trainer Aide and an athlete himself. Because of his own experiences in sports, he understands firsthand the important role athletic trainers and sports medicine professionals play in keeping athletes healthy, safe, and ready to compete.

Despite a busy schedule, Nick continues to show up each morning ready to work and ensure that our athletes receive the care and support they need. His positive attitude, willingness to serve, and commitment to learning have already made him a valuable addition to our program.

Tomorrow morning, we’ll be back at it bright and early, continuing to learn, improve, and get just a little bit better. One of the most rewarding parts of this summer has been watching these students grow in confidence as they communicate with athletes, coaches, and each other. Their development, leadership, and willingness to learn make us incredibly proud.

👏 Keep up the great work, Panthers. The future is bright!

🏈 Good Afternoon, Panther Nation! 🐾

Our Sports Medicine team has been hard at work this morning supporting Panther Football during their first team camp of the summer! It was an exciting day filled with learning opportunities, teamwork, and plenty of preparation for the season ahead.

A special shoutout goes to Kassidy and Kassadee, who joined us for their very first team camp experience! (We’re still working on keeping those names straight ourselves! 😄) Both of these outstanding Athletic Trainer Aides stepped up and did an incredible job. From helping keep athletes hydrated to learning the fast-paced environment of a team camp, they handled every challenge with confidence, professionalism, and enthusiasm.

We also want to recognize several of our football players who volunteered their time on the sidelines to help keep their teammates hydrated throughout the day. Their willingness to serve others and put the team first is exactly what Panther Football is all about. 💙

👏 Thank you to all of our athletes and student aides who worked together today to make sure everyone stayed safe, healthy, and ready to compete.

The work doesn’t stop here! We’ll be back on the practice field bright and early tomorrow, continuing to learn, grow, and find ways to get a little better every day.

Thank you for following along with our Sports Medicine and Football journey this summer. We’re building something special, and we’re just getting started.

✨ The best is yet to come! ✨

🏈 Good Evening, Panther Nation! 🐾

We couldn’t let the day end without introducing another one of our outstanding Athletic Trainer Aides! Please help us recognize our next Senior, Kassidy Gray! 🙌

Kassidy has quickly become an invaluable part of our Sports Medicine team. You’ll almost always find her carrying a notebook and pen, making sure she captures every detail and learns as much as possible. Her dedication to doing things the right way is evident in everything she does. She consistently asks thoughtful questions, seeks opportunities to learn, and goes above and beyond to ensure our athletes receive the best care possible.

Beyond her strong work ethic, Kassidy brings a positive attitude and contagious smile to every practice. She’s always ready to jump in wherever needed, tackle new challenges, and help keep things running smoothly. And if someone leaves a water bottle lying around instead of putting it where it belongs, you can count on Kassidy to make sure accountability is part of the lesson! 😉

Her commitment, attention to detail, and willingness to serve have made her an incredible asset to our staff, and we are excited to watch her continue to grow throughout her senior year.

Now it’s time to get to work at team camp, continue learning, and find ways to get a little better every day. The season is getting closer, and we’re excited for what’s ahead!

Go Panthers! 🤍💙
