Mission Statement
The Our Lady of the Lake University Athletic Training Department exists to provide health care services to all student-athletes who participate in OLLU Athletics. The OLLU Athletic Training Department strives to prevent injuries, provide prompt treatment of injuries when they occur, and rehabilitate athletes whose injuries require restorative care. It will be the goal of the Athletic Training Department to administer its responsibilities with both professional skills, compassionate care, and provide the best possible medical resources necessary to allow our student-athletes to return to competition as soon and as safe as possible.
Parents and Student-Athletes:
All of the information on this page is required for participation in Our Lady of the Lake University Athletics. We are asking for the forms to be completed and returned as soon as possible. These forms must be filled out before any OLLU athletics participation. These forms are to be renewed annually. In addition to these forms, we are asking for a copy of your current insurance card (both sides), copies of dental and/or vision cards, and immunization records (for new students).
All athletes must get a pre-participation physical completed and fill out the athletic training room required forms before they are eligible to participate in intercollegiate athletics. The required forms can be obtained online and then printed out for completion and mailing.
As an Our Lady of the Lake University athlete, you are required to complete and submit a medical history questionnaire, insurance information, waiver, and consent and release forms each year. Completion of all paperwork and the physical exam is required before you begin any athletic participation.
If you require a medical clearance for a health condition (e.g., heart condition) or injury (e.g., recent reconstructed ACL) from another physician, please arrange to obtain a signed release and send in your required forms below. If you have questions about if you should obtain a release, please contact the athletic training staff.
It is important to have the original forms mailed to the university. No faxes will be accepted. Please address to:
