Colorado EDGE Soccer Club’s Preferred Healthcare Provider
Our goal is to provide the best programming, value, and care for our members, and the partnership with Children’s Hospital Colorado was a perfect match. Children’s Colorado will provide 2 athletic trainers (ATs) full-time to our membership Monday-Thursday and at Stenger Soccer Complex during home games during the league season, at our hosted tournaments, at certain other events, as well as, be available in our club office weekly for visits. This will greatly benefit our athletes by providing immediate evaluation of any injuries. The athletic trainers will be a part of the club and will be able to develop relationships with coaches, players and parents that are important for the well-being of the athlete and make care more accessible.
