Women's Basketball Summit

I'm participating in the Women's Basketball Summit!  This event is like attending a conference from the comfort of your couch.  You can wear sweats, make some popcorn, put your feet up, and watch interviews over a four day span from people of all different backgrounds talking about basketball!  The target audience is for young female athletes, their parents, and their coaches - to gain new perspectives about ways to improve performance both on and off the court.  The panel includes college basketball coaches and administrators, strength and conditioning coaches, physical therapists, injury prevention specialists, personal trainers, communication experts, and more!

Today I was able to record my discussion with host Jen Brickey. Jen is a strength and conditioning coach in Massachusetts who played Division I College basketball at Hofstra University in NY.  I've been fortunate enough to meet several of the other presenters throughout my career working in women's basketball - and I can tell you they're really bright people with unique and interesting backgrounds.  Right now, if you want to register to watch, you can have access to all the videos for only $5 when they go live in September!  Prices will go up in about a week!

We had the opportunity to talk about my responsibilities with the Seattle Storm, work I do in the clinic at Seattle Children's Hospital as a Sports Physical Therapist, common injuries in women's basketball, and recommendations for youth athletes.
