Abstract
This paper describes the Albuquerque and Bernalillo County Medical Association Sports Medicine Commit tee, in existence since 1973. The Committee has had several non-physician members, including athletic trainers, physical therapists, dentists, and others. Among the many accomplishments of the Committee has been the development of a unique high school sports medicine program for the Albuquerque Public School System. The program combines certified ath letic trainers and volunteer team physicians in a close and formal working relationship. To support the high school program, the Committee has developed an injury reporting system, a computer program for re cording statistics, and a continuing education news- letter. The program has been well received by all concerned with it, especially the student-athletes.
