| ACSM Strategic Partnership with the Amateur Athletic
Union (AAU)
You can help keep young athletes healthy and safe.
The creation of an ACSM & AAU Sports Medicine
Registry (SMR) is the first of several goals within the
partnership. SMR is a web-based referral network of sports medicine
professionals at the AAU District level who can be contacted by
individuals and groups to explore availability of clinical/sideline
services on a fee and/or no fee basis.
SMR allows sports medicine professionals to self register and AAU
coaches, event organizers, teams, parents, organizations, and groups to
locate the registered participants by state.
ACSM's powerful network adds to AAU's leadership in youth sports, and
enriches the AAU youth sports experience for everyone. AAU benefits
because ACSM provides a new dimension of sports medicine and sports
science expertise, resources, and knowledge through the partnership.
ACSM and AAU's objective is to populate SMR with sports medicine
professionals to its fullest potential prior to marketing this resource
to AAU constituents beginning September 1, 2007. Please consider joining
this partnership effort!

Thank you for taking this important step to help keep young athletes
healthy and safe.
