Zeeland East Athletics is extremely grateful for the excellent team of physicians and health care professionals that devote time outside of their busy schedules to provide coverage and care to our athletes on the sidelines and in the athletic training room. It is a privilege to have such outstanding professionals as part of our sports medicine team. Having their skills and knowledge on hand at the moment of injury provides you and your child with a fast, accurate diagnosis so we can quickly direct you to the most appropriate form of care. Please, if you see these individuals, whether on the sideline or around town, thank them for their service to the community and to our student-athletes.
